Nepenthes are plants before they are Carnivorous Plants! Cultivating should be like all plants!

This thread is to recognize breeding of cultivars or forms of a single species together. We are now recognizing variations in species as each form has adapted specifically to a particular region and the characteristics are common from those from the region. Breeding two clones together would produce "hybrid" results and not actually not being a hybrid.

N. alata (giant x Luzon) Mansell

Has qualities which make this very valuable. The giant while getting huge dimensions lacks any interesting color other than green. Here this clone has developed beautiful mottling and a dark peristome.
