Is it ever! I think that's N. x 'Predator'.

Beautiful! Nice cross section of different Neps-good pics.

(That second to the last pitcher looks a lot like a Victorian hybrid-hard to tell which one from the angle-what is it?)
 
Some smashing plants there Robin

Is the shots of the lowii-x-ventricosa with and without flash?
Are you also growing the lowii x truncata as well?

Nice subtle carunculata pitcher, showing that Neps don't need to have bells & whistles to be beautiful

My goodness! Those plants look amazing!

Wow...beautiful plants! I'll second that BONK though...we need ID's for those of us who are not nepexperts. A few I think I recognize.

Lovely!

schloaty & PAK: A good hint about the plant name is found in the image file name.

I di not see the file names..which one is caranculata? I saw the macrophylla and the top one is a definite N. 'Predator'. There are some raffs in there and campanulata.
All spectacular, BTW.

Cheers,


Joe

Oops! Sorry about the names guys, and gals. Thanks for all the compliments. Tony nailed 'em all!
All I can add, is the second raff is supposedly "giant".
Yeah Bill, I thought It looked good with a flash, but to be fair I had to put one in withought the flash. I hope it keeps that deep purple color as it matures.
Trent, If you mean the macrophylla, I was not sure about it myself, ( I think it has too many teeth) but several people here including Tony, and Jeff (neps) said it was the real thing so I'll take they're word for it.

The sphagnum moss is really movin now. I believe it means I'm doing something right. I think it may be trying to take over!

Thanks again,
Robin

Hi Robin,
Doh!!!
I was looking at the raff gigantea and thought it might be a hybrid. Which clone of raff gigantea is that (from seed?)? Is it one of BE's clones?

Love seeing the highland plants - we can't grow them and it's always a treat to see well grown specimens.
