It grows a lot like an N. truncata.

The other thread reminded me to post an update.

Back in May of 2012.

It has put out three leaves during the summer, one shockingly tiny and two decent sized but slightly deformed. No pitchers since June, but surprisingly the petioles on the last two leaves have increased in length compared to previous leaves. Now that the temps have dropped hopefully I'll be seeing some new pitchers and nicer leaves in a few months.

Looks good! Are you growing outside?

I've had a similar experience growing this one it sub-tropical Taiwan. One tiny deformed pitcher since June, and three small spotty leaves. Obviously not a fan of the heat. Fingers crossed it perks up a bit now that the heat isn't so crippling.

Yes, I received it around July 2009 according to the CP jungle records so it has survived quite a few summers. I think it handled this summer the best. IIRC it was usually shrinking slightly by the end of previous summers. Perhaps it's from the coffee I gave it around June.
