Interestingly, yours are more white whereas mine are more dark purple. Do you know if yours is a female or male?

That has a very nice big lid on it.... I didn't even know that cross existed actually until just now! The thing I usually love on raff hybrids is the frills down the front having spots and that plant doesn't even have any  |

Wow!! If I wouldn't have been told, I started imagining a burbidgeae in there somewhere. I guess you started out with a white speckled version of rafflesiana.

vraev ...
It is an Exotica plant. I'm not sure how many crossing they made but there may be more than one. I've got another one that makes very dark lowers made from a "rafflesiana, dark". rainforest probably knows more of the details.

I originally got three when they were first offered. I only have two now, a male and female.
The male plant at one time bore pitchers the size of ripe coconuts, but has never done this again. Our weather pattern has changed and this has a factor to why my pitchers have not been as huge as previously seen.

Aaah nice! No wonder EPs plants are soo unique. Very nice though. I do wish there was a way to easily clone individual plants in mass. That way we can select some of these unique ones.  |

M I think we maybe seeing those coconuts come back soon as long as this winter continues as is. I've been keeping track in a way, of when the 'Kona' winds come and over the past twelve years I have caught on to a few hints to what is more likely to come and so far with the first 'real' storm to pass through being two weeks away from christmas it is looking very good. I'll have a better insight after new years. I really enjoyed seeing those coconuts. |

If they were cloned on mass, they would no longer be unique.

If they were cloned on mass, they would no longer be unique. True, but then more people would have a chance to enjoy them. Gus |
