N. robcantleyi x hamata

Dexenthes

Aristoloingulamata
I could have sworn there was already a thread for this cross.

I am so stoked!!! :banana2:





 
I've been wanting one of these as well...very beautiful plant there Dex!
 
What's NOT to love about it?!? :-O

I too have been wanting to get my mitts on one of these. Already good looking plants, with lots of potential.
 
Out of the robcantleyi crosses that have been made, this one definitely has the most appeal. I haven't seen any seedlings so far that don't look good.
 
Looking great! I wonder how much influence the robcantleyi genes will have on the peristome as it grows further.

Hopefully the one I've gotten recently will recover...

:lol: The resemblance is striking. They can reproduce and have fertile offspring so they are technically the same species anyway. :banana2:

Just got my self one too!

Super healthy with 3 pitches, hopefully the plant settles in soon and likes its new condition!

I bought mine from a vendor in California, its still small but its getting some pitchers now.

As a side note to that pictorial, that pitcher had (by far), the most grueling process of opening its lid that I have ever witnessed in a Nepenthes before. What with all of the hair on its lid, its comically sized wings and all of those teeth, it took that pitcher nearly a week to pop.

Yeah I agree. For its size it sure does take its time. Here's mine:

And it's working on a new one:
