I recently acquired this interesting specimen from a local grower. The person I bought it from said that he received it from overseas a while ago and it was seed grown. I already had one bical and another coming, but when I saw this I couldn't resist :lol:. It has very squat, dark pitchers. When they pop they're brown, but over time they infuse dark black. I think this one would be really fun to breed with.
