So I guess we have reason to assume that the "common" Miranda was not used in this cross?
Outstanding plant, Sam.

Remember this is still a baby. It is half merrilliana. Maybe this will be a potty for people when fully matured!

mikulas ..... The N. miranda was your standard garden store clone.  victoria .... This would be a cultivar from the N. Pompey grex. You are right .... most of it's siblings are twice the dimensions and less colorful. rainforest ..... Some of the N. Pompey are quite large. Not as large as the N. Caesar in pitcher size but with the very long leaves of the N. merrilliana mother and some interesting coloration. Here are some uppers from the more common N. Pompey ....  |

Interestingly my Mirandas are blooming late this year, just now. Is anyone else's blooming oddly this year? I will try to pollinate with them again, but have not been too successful with them. A cross with boschiana would be great, don't you think?
Your Miranda is slightly different than mine. I have a bit more yellow green coloration to the mottlings. I will try to find a shot.
