Some may recall my post about finding this large N. ‘Allardii’ at a local nursery about 5 weeks ago.
It was in a pretty poor state and although still producing leaves had not pitchered for some time.
It has since taken off an is producing loads of new leaves at a very rapid rate. There are about 6-8 pitchers forming from 3x growing points. The largest of which was already partially formed when I got it (I suspect from before it arrived at the nursery) but appears to have become dormant until it was placed in my more preferential conditions.
Anyway... so the pitcher is now swelling again but I just noticed its lid is basically non-existent. I am guessing it sustained just a bit to much damage and was unable to form.
All of the newly formed pitchers are fine.
