Picked this guy up from "carnivero" the pitchers quickly went down hill after shipping. After it got acclimated to outdoor Carolina summers it really started taking off.

just look at the size of the newest leaf

That thing looks majestic man. I got one from Bergen back in summer. It's a little guy, 6 inches across or so. I messed up though and had the plant on a shelf on my back patio where it was getting enough light to survive but not enough to really grow much or color my pitchers so the growing was weak. I have it under lights for the winter now and it looks like it's starting to move.

I have looked at so may pics of BE-3543 and i see such a wide variation in traits. I feel like i got my favored clone. I feel lucky was expecting the worst. (TY Drew @ CAR.)

That was how I felt with my veitchii I got from carnivero. They said some plants didn't show striping until a foot across but I'm seeing it start at 5 inches. I was like "Yessssss" Hard to say but my plant looks similar to yours so far. That's also what I was hoping for with the plant.
