That clipeata x reinwardtiana (MT's clone) is female. Mine has started to bud, will post some pics soon. Has anyone else flowered that clip hybrid before?

Wijaya, your raff elongata x rowanae will get huge in your area, don't be fooled with these puny pitchers, this hybrid will get huge! They do like a LOT of light though, I have grown this one well (for the time being) in ten inch hanging baskets as they love to be wet. They like wet feet and dry out quickly if not attended to. Enjoy them in this situation until they have out grown that and start growing in twenty gallon pots. I think the combination of two giant parents makes for super huge offspring!

Ed ....

I think you will be surprised at how large the pitchers on you clipeata x reinwardtiana will get.





M ....

No. Mine has not flowered.

Michael: the one I have still a junior plant, hope it is a female.
For the raff var elongata (e) x rowanae, I saw the big pitcher ;D when they first came, hopefully it will get at least the same size as it first came, I grew this one in a rattan basket.

@sam: Wow, thats huge for lowlanders, thanks for showing me the true potential of this one hybrid. Sure your plant not getting expose to any radioactive material? ;D just kidding

Ed,
The third from the last has a winged tendril. What is that one?

[wijaya]

Hi Michael, that is only x Hookeriana, only with the extra winged tendril, we called it variant 'alata', probably getting the winged from the raff parent. I have another color with this winged as well and also raff with winged tendril.

Interesting! Not sure if I have ever seen a winged Hookeriana before.
