My first nep flower!

Exo

Tastes like chicken!

N.carmen (spathulata x campanulata)

Now....it's time to play Dr.Frankenstein and make some freak babies.

So, if anyone has any pollen, or will have, shoot me a PM...and we can make babies together. :awesome:
 
Congrads Exo. Always exciting times.
 
Nice!! I might have some LL veitchii pollen left ???. I think it is your hamata's turn next.... Right?
 
lolol..it better be..as far as the pollen...take a look and see if you have any...veitchii could be interesting. :)
 
*puts on gas mask and braves the windowsill*
 
Gratz on the flower.

So you are going to recreate butt ugly Judith Finn, but with campanulata smacked in the middle?
 
I will soon have N. spathulata x boschiana pollen available. I will also have a male N. Eglantine in bloom soon. (look it up: very little ramispina influence showing, however. )
 
Any pics of what the pitchers on your N. spathulata x boschiana look like? Thanks. :)
 
Exo. I have a maxima hybrid flowing. You just missed my red leopard.

You can tell, if the buds are round, it's male...oval or egg shaped means female.

Ryan...if it's male....that means you and I can make some seeds....can you take a pic, so I can see how far along it is?

I've got a couple packets left of N. ventricosa "red" pollen, the shape of vent and campy mixed with the peristome of spathulata ought to make an interesting cross.
