Other comments:
4)Jan Schlauer's list says this is the same as N. alata
5)=rafflesiana X mirabilis, see CPN 16:3:68
6)I don't think the ID is right. Certainly one parent is rafflesiana.
Dimorphic pitchers. A favourite hybrid of mine.
7)=maximaXthorelli, see Gordon Cheers' book, p. 2
8)=gracilisXampullaria
9)Super easy plant, will produce large pitchers freely.
Sorry I can't send these out of the US, Taylor-guys. Also, there is
absolutely no guarantee as to identification authenticity. I
will have more ``X hookeriana'' and X williamsii cuttings in
the future, these being very weedy plants. The cuttings are unrooted,
and if you want I can root them for you but it may take a while (2-4
months*). Also in the (distant) future, maybe Maybe MAYBE some
cuttings or rooted X superba, maxima, ventricosa, ampullaria `red'
(not Cantley's red), and rafflesiana `dark'. I'll keep you posted,
but will be happy to take early orders.
*Once a cutting I had for Don took more than 6 months and never struck!
I finally sent it to him unrooted. It was an ampullaria, and species
always are slower than hybrids.
I hope I get some takers on this stuff. I'm not above throwing plants
out, you know. (heh heh heh...that ought to get them scared! shh!)
