Your neps look very bushy and robust. Do you ferlilize them? Nice wild look.  Love the N. veitchii x (maxima x veitchii). Peristome so wide... The red strips makes a very nice contrast to the background green of the peristome. I have a miranda and the uppers are similar to your mixta but pitchers are straighter. I noticed your mixta's uppers are curved like a horn. Interesting. |

Miranda and Mixta look almost the same. I still don't known how to differentiate them. Nice plant you have  |

I agree with David & Bifurcatum, Miranda and Mixta looks almost the same.
But if I based on your picture jk, I'd assume, that Mixta would have a more pronounce horn shape. Is this the correct way to ID the plant?

The ID of the "Mixta" is questionable. It was sold to me with a different name tag that was incorrect, according to even the seller. Since I am worthless at IDing Neps, I asked for help on another CP forum and posted photos of the pitcher and leaves. Mixta got the most votes, although Miranda was a close second.
I fertilize my Neps with half strength fish emulsion and seaweed extract every two weeks or so.
