My lone, unidentified nep..


Question
eh?
eh?  
I know these sorts of questions probably drive you guys crazy, but I have one Nepenthes in my collection that remains unidentified. I bought the plant from you guys at Saturday Market, I believe, in May of 2011.

I've had a few second opinions from other vendors and the internet community, and N. sibuyanensis x talangensis seems to be the likely candidate. However, this really depends on whether or not you guys remember stocking these plants around that time. Otherwise, do you have any clue what it might be?

Answer
My first thought when I saw the photo was ventricosa x talangensis.  I know we've carried that in the past, and I think we still do, but they're floating around somewhere in the greenhouse.  As for sibyanensis x talangensis, we've never carried it, at least knowingly.

Good growing!
