I saw this species at California Carnivores. It
has a very wide, ribbed, peristome, much like
N. veitchii (if I'm recalling my species correctly).
Peter said the species is "very desireable" right
now, but that it's being tissue cultured and should
be more available then. Peter seemed to think that
the increase in tissue culturing will drive prices
on rare plants down. I guess we'll see.
