Emiel Posted September 19, 2011 Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 I'm not sure, but I'd say it is N. "Rebecca Soper". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satsvear Posted September 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 After I read your answer I do as always, google is my friend Looked any some pictures of "Rebecca soper." I looks like my plant. Read on a page that it was sold as 'Lantern Alata'. Here in sweden they often sales "alata" but it´s ventrata. From now I call it "Rebecca soper". I really big thanx! Well Met!

gardenofeden Posted September 19, 2011 Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 (edited) with red leaves it looks more like sanguineas which are in a lot af garden centres now see this thread http://www.cpukforum.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=42092&st=0&p=300149&hl=beauty&fromsearch=1entry300149 Edited September 19, 2011 by gardenofeden Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mobile Posted September 19, 2011 Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 Here in sweden they often sales "alata" but it´s ventrata. Same here in th UK. In fact, every ventrata I have seen in garden centres are marked as alata. It's beyond me as to why the supplier of these plants insists on using what is obviously the incorrect name label.

Satsvear Posted September 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 Now I got confused. I though it was a "Rebecca". Looking at pictures with the new info that it could be a sanguinea I even got more confused. I seems like "rebecca" have little ´shields´like my Miranda have. The sanguinea seems to be more smooth in the gap. I hope you understand my english and what I mean. The picture of sanguinea at extreme-plants look like just my pitcher. I think the place I got my neps buy there plants from this place www.lammehave.dk I´m impressed how much help I got this far from a very simple question. Keep up the work! Well Met!

CreatureTom Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 Looks exactly like my N x 'Rebecca Soper' (which is N. Ramispina x Ventricosa) when I got it from a garden centre. The leaves will turn from red to green with time, if you give it a good amount of light the pitchers will get nice and dark (: It's also called N x 'Black Knight' in some places which is what I call mine as it sounds a whole lot cooler!

pmatil Posted September 28, 2011 Report Share Posted September 28, 2011 I have both sanguinea and rebecca soper. This one looks definitely like rebecca soper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Eyre Posted September 28, 2011 Report Share Posted September 28, 2011 I too have both Rebecca Soper and sanguinea. I would also say your plant is a Rebecca Soper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satsvear Posted September 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2011 Thank you fore taking the time, so it´s a Rebecca soper then... Can you tell me how you see the difference between them? I contacted the store I bought it from, they say it´s a Alata but I don´t belive them. Looking at some pictures I think it looks more like sanguineas but more and more tell me it´s Rebecca. You are probably right, is it ok to call it "black night" then? Think the name is cooler It´s seems more likely that they sell Rebecca instead of sanguineas... Well Met! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CreatureTom Posted September 28, 2011 Report Share Posted September 28, 2011 (edited) Here's a picture of my black night, it looks pretty similar, not as fat as a lot of the ones around.. You can tell it's not sanguinea because the peristome is more round, along with the shape of the pitchers Edited September 28, 2011 by CreatureTom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satsvear Posted September 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2011 A really big thanks for the explaining! At last I´m shure! Well Met! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
