It's happening before our eyes

Dear all:

I was minding my business today, when i received an e-mail from my friend and Nepenthes grower colleague Geoff Mansell (http://www.exoticaplants.com.au
He was sharing some Nepenthes photos and all i had to say is that my mouth and my eyes got wide open, when i saw these new hybrids he is making.

I could not believe my eyes at the beauty of N. X predator = Hamata X truncata  and the spectabilis x aristolochioides. He had others too, but i hope he does not mind me publishing this here.
WE HAVE TO BE BLIND NOT TO SEE SUCH BEAUTY, AND BY THE WAY, THEY EXPORT WORLDWIDE..

They're gorgeous! The second especially!
 
the first one reminds me of a hairy catapiller. Cool
 
I like spectabilis x aristolochioides plant best, but both are very pretty.

Nice Gus.

I was not aware of the N. spectabilis x aristolochioides, but my N. 'Predator' is on it's way next week I hope.  Can't wait to see it when mature

OOO I had to email Geoff about the N. spectabilis x aristolochioides but was not aware of it either so it's probably not available.

N. Predator is in the US but not available yet

Holy maceral! Those are both awesome! I'm a little surprised the petrisome of the x'Predetor' kept so much of the hamata's teeth. I bet this is going to turn into a large-pitcher producing plant.

The spec x aris. is already incredible looking

When are predators going to be available in the us and how much would one set me back?
