Awesome entry Exo! Love the peristome.
 
Thanks, it came out a bit fuzzy, so I'm gonna take a better one, but it's awesomeness shines through. ^_^

Newly opened upper pitcher of N. maxima dark x talangensis. For a plant that has lowers basically like Lady Pauline, it's a striking difference.

Ah hmm Well I uploaded this for a friend who made the cross and it didn't seem right to make a new thread here for a single photo, so I decided to put it here! Enjoy

N. (thorelii x aristolochioides) x viking

That cross turned out much nicer than I would have thought. Great entry, Tony.

@corky: It should be darker by the end of the month, at which time I'll be sure to post follow-up pics.

This is my newest N. Miranda pitcher :D It may be somewhat of a common variety compaired to others, but still a beauty IMO ;)

Sorry for the pic quality, taken with the phone

Thanks :) I've had him around for about eight years now. He's a survivor! Only him and my ventrata survived my college years of neglect.
