This is a favorite among growers. This hybrid clearly shows the best of both species. This is a short basal that is snuck below the canopy of a larger and more vigorous growing main stem. Note that the pitchers while somewhat upperish have a more eymae upper appearance with infundibular form. The wide flared peristome of veitchii is retained with the plant habit very veitchii-like, yet just the shape of the upper pitchers brings it right back to eymae. M

The last pic is the most impressive of all, I really love the gold peristome from the Veitchii parent.

I believe the peristome coloration is from the eymae side. The veitchii used in this cross is a vivid red and green striped form.
See the ep registered plant of N. Starfire, the veitchii there I believe is the same used with N. eymae.
