Everything is so well organized and neat. Once those plants grow up your GH will be nothing short of amazing! (not that it isn't now)  I also like what you've done with your pots: The small pot inside the larger one - so you can overwater if you're gonna be out for extended periods. Very well thought out and superbly well organized.

Yes I agree with brokk! Any more pics of what looks to be an amazing setup and collection?

The plant in the photo isn't N. truncata * N. ephippiata.
It is N. robcantleyi * N. ephippiata.
Are there two different hybrids going by the same name?

The tag in the first photo doesn't even say N. robcantelyi x N. ephippiata (I don't think BE has made any N. robcantleyi hybrids with ephippiata), it says N. truncata 'Queen of Hearts' x 'King of Spades'. Which now are just N. robcantelyi progeny.
I'm sure william can confirm this.

Thanks all! I will post some photos this weekend. The N. truncata x ephippiata is in the N. robcantleyi pot.

Nope, BE has said several times, they haven't ever flowered a N. truncata. But anyway, I'm not sure which nursery produced this hybrid...

So far I only know this hybrid to originate from Exotica Plants, and certainly matches others I've seen from them. Beautifully grown by the way, william

Yea, Dave where have you been? I know I don't always take the care in all I say but really I thought you were joking. Got two myself. Here's one. The other is still working on it's next.

I stand by it. This hybrid looks like a N. robcantleyi cross to me.
