Aristolochioides madness!

Whoops, forgot to answer Peter and Christian.
Peter, the lights are Fluorex compact fluorescent fixtures, which I get at the local Home Depot. They are really cheap, and grow neps great!
Christian, here's a pic of the thorelli x aristo. First, an upper:
And here's a lower:
And as a bonus for wading through all this, here's a mystery aristo hybrid. Any guesses?

Where it is now averages a range of 60-85% most of the year. The next couple months are the trickiest, since we get spells of warm, dry weather in September/October where it can go down to 40% in here, and even less outdoors. But that's usually only for a few hours, and it cools down at night. I can keep the heat of the day out during these stretches, so it never gets over 80 in my house. Once the rains come I'm back in business, humidity-wise. It's fog in summer and rain in winter here, with sunnier springs and falls.
Good guess, noah, but nope.

LOL! Sorry about that lithopsman! I'm sure he'll get more soon as it's a fantastic plant! I'll keep posting photos as the situation warrants. I've posted a couple of them so far. You can browse my photos here:

Currently alot of these new hybrids are in small supply and once they are gone it will be a while before someone remakes the cross or cuttings become available.
I would expect that you will see more of these neat hybrids in increasing numbers (and lower costs) as more and more growers have plants reach blooming size.
