As they get larger, the bical influence becomes more noticeable. As for which plant bears the seed pod being dominant- normally "mom's" characteristics seem to dominate, but not always. One thing is for sure-no fangs. On a mature plant, there is a pair of beads where the peristome meets the lid. Also, N. Cantleyi can be both (N. gracilis x N. bicalcarata) and (N. bicalcarata x N. gracilis) These reciprical hybrids carry the same name.[/QUOTE]<span id='postcolor'>
Thanks Trent.
Wow, that's interesting... i've already taken cuttings from it once, and have been growing it for more than a year. How long does it take this plant to mature?
I can't imagine it ever being 12" in diameter, either. It seems far too gracilis-like for that. Perhaps mine is the offspring of a maternal gracilis cross, and the one in question has a bical maternal parent.
