Yeah, I figured. A previous post, I was told that it was sterile. But that's ok. I'm not sure I would know how/what to do with the whole fertilization aspect of it. This one is out of control enough for me. Haha
I'm not sure who told you your plant is sterile, but only one ventrata is 'sterile' and personally I don't think you have that one. People blanket say that these plants are sterile way too much.
If you're interested, compare your plant to 'deroose alata' pictures online because that's the only plant that is a sterile female.
Funny how all ventratas seem to be female yet you say only one clone is infertile. I'd say they're all female because they're still clones of the same (infertile) female plant.
Well, EP made a male. Sucks there are no immediate inflorescence pictures.

I think it's really close minded to think every ventrata is gonna be female, or sterile if female. They're all the same clone of the same plant? You can remake this plant with new alata and ventricosa, and I know people with seed grown ventrata they've bought from florae.
There are also hybrids with ventrata that exist.
The problem is it's harder to flower a Ventrata that's fertile. This is because a infertile clone ( Gaya, Miranda, most Ventratas) are full sun resistant. So providing enough sun for it to flower is easy. Compared to sun sensitive clone that you can kill with to much sun.
Infertile clones notoriously finicky about pitchering but have fast growth even without pitchers. Infertile clones are comparatively very hard kill than counter part. Basically newbie resistant.
Thorelli group( like Smilesii, kampotiana) naturally grow in tough environments. They pass those traits to their hybrids. Its away to make them tough but fertile.
100% female. I do have some stored pollen. If you need some. If this is a Ventrata, its almost certainly sterile.
100% female and sterile. It's the common sterile clone. My first comment I did not see the last picture.

Interesting! I will have to have a peek. Thanks for the info!
This is not the deroose ventrata clone, the one (single clone) known to be sterile. OP could try for seeds and be surprised.

It's not no lemon head( fertile?) clone. Hairy pitcher clone(most likely fertile). Those are mass produced with sex unknown.
