While doing some recent maintenance, I found these little pitchers that look rather promising: First, some different color variants of eymae x (jacquelineae x izumiae) -- many, many thanks to the growers who shared seeds with me. All of these are fully colored-up: And then there's this little-known hybrid from Sam, N. Gloxinia (ventricosa x Predator): The whole plant is suffused with purple, and the pitchers can get dark. Here's a creation from bobh, thorelii-d x Tiveyi. It's like a thorelii with a Tiveyi peristome. Interestingly, the Tiveyi version in this cross is not striped. Grows well as a lowlander & an intermediate. And just because I like it so much, St. Lidwina (splendiana x ramispina): This is near mature size, however. How are everyone else's eymae x (jacq x izum) turning out?

Your eymae x (jacq x iz) are really looking good. Here are a couple of my darker pitchers

Thanks, tuuagso. Your dark ones are coming along well, too, Bob. I find that the shape of the pitchers vary on these -- some look like they'll be shaped more like eymaes (the 3 I pictured here), whereas others look like they'll be more elongated & izumiae-like, and a few others are turning out tubby-bottomed. I really need to put mine in bigger pots, but I won't have room for them until the lowlanders go outside next month.
