Nepenthes robcantleyi x lowii and x ephippiata; one is dark and slender, the other lighter and stripier but also tubby. Both should look amazing when mature

There’s a stench in the basement…because one of the corpse flowers is blooming again!
This is the most common, easiest species in cultivation, but still impressive…and impressively horrid when it warms up.
Amorphophallus konjac
