Nepenthes ampullaria variegatedThis clone of Nepenthes ampullaria may have the most gorgeous variegation amongst any Nepenthes in cultivation. Stable variegation is rare among plants and particularly Nepenthes with only a few documented clones. To our knowledge, this clone has never been sold in the USA and we're happy to offer this specimen for sale. Large Nepenthes ampullaria can be sensitive to root disturbance so we always recommend keeping them in extremely high humidity

intermediate and highland greenhouses with success

We used the wicked hamata Tambusisi for the pod parent with pollen parent being our child-sized truncata (c)- Giant

Nepenthes ventricosa x ovata produces squat pitchers with a widely flared peristome

Plants are all seed grown individuals so some variability is to be expected

Lumens/Watt: G660FS2

All plants in cultivation owe their lineage to a single mother plant (the type specimen) which was in bloom at the time of taxonomic collection

it's clearly a distinct population from the (c) form so we expect some exceptional vigor since this is a cross between plants from distinct populations

We've found this clone to be more vigorous as a young plant than any others we've grown

The pitchers and leaves on many variants get dark red/purple under strong light

It's a very closely related species to Philodendron serpens which has a similar growth habit

It's a fast
