🔔 Final Restock Update — By Popular Demand! 🔔 Aft 🔔 Final Restock Update — By Popular Demand! 🔔 After selling out this weekend, we’ve been able to secure MORE LARGE plants of: • Nepenthes ampullaria ‘Lime Twist’ — BE-3390 • Nepenthes sibuyanensis × merrilliana (selected clones) — BE-4026 🌱 Nepenthes ampullaria ‘Lime Twist’ BE-3390 is a classic swamp-dwelling species that, when mature, produces beautiful basal rosettes that form a carpet of pitchers with few leaves. This carefully selected clone features the body coloration of ‘Harlequin’ paired with a striking lime-green peristome that can develop maroon striping in high light. It thrives in warm temperatures, high humidity, and consistently moist, acidic media. 🔥 Nepenthes sibuyanensis × merrilliana BE-4026 is one of the most impressive hybrids ever created. It combines the waxy texture of N. sibuyanensis with the sheer size and power of N. merrilliana, producing enormous deep orange to red pitchers. It’s vigorous, robust, and an easy grower. A clone of this cross even holds a 🏆Guinness World Record🥇 for largest carnivorous plant by volume — and it may not be the limit. If you’d like to add one to your existing order, send us a message and we’ll arrange it — or place a new order on the website and we’ll refund any duplicate shipping charges.🪳 🗓 All Borneo Exotics pre-order items must be finalized by March 5. 📦 We’ll remove listings after that date to prepare for shipping around March 11. Thank you again for the incredible response — we’re proud to be able to offer plants like these to our community.🦗 #NepenthesAmpullariaLimeTwist #NepenthesSibuyanensisXMerrilliana #NepenthesHybrid #BorneoExotics #nepenthespreorder
We’re still catching our breath — in the best poss We’re still catching our breath — in the best possible way. 🐜 The response to our Borneo Exotics pre-order has been incredible. Orders flying in, messages rolling through, packing lists growing by the minute… it’s the kind of busy that makes you pause and feel deeply grateful. We’re so proud to be able to offer these amazing plants to you and to see them heading to collections all over the country. 🪳 This weekend was a whirlwind between the pre-order launch and our Valentine’s event — and now we’re diving straight into a packed spring show calendar. In the photo, you’ll see just a few of the events we’ll be attending this season. It’s going to be a fun (and full!) few months.🦗 You can still purchase your BE pre-order plants through March 5. Any plants that remain unsold will stay with us to acclimate, and we’re hoping to have many of them available May 16–17 at the ICPS Carnivorous & Exotic Plant Symposium & Expo in Kernersville, NC.🪰 Thank you for supporting our little nursery — which just happens to be the largest carnivorous plant nursery in Winston-Salem 😉 Proudly NC nursery certified, and even prouder of this amazing community.🪲 #CarnivorousPlants #Nepenthes #BorneoExotics #ICPS #NCNursery
