N. hamata – Gng. Tambusisi: BE-3975 MEDIUM
Nepenthes hamata is a wonderful species with clawed peristome and perhaps the most iconic species that most people can grow successfully.
Both parent plants to this grex are themselves seed-raised specimens. This is a triumph for conservation and is probably the first ever horticulturally bred Nepenthes hamata. Peristomes on mature plants observed in the wild are sometimes red and the lower pitchers are sometimes larger than the form from Gng. Lumut.
Origin: Horticultural, bred by Borneo Exotics.
Source: A random selection from a large number of different clones.
Photo notes: Photos are of representative clones and may not be identical to plants shipped. The last photos in the series show plants of typical sale sizes in order of size S, M & L (when available).
Climate: Highland. We grow it between about 26 deg. C (80 deg. F) in the daytime, down to 12 deg. C (54 deg. F) at night, although it will certainly tolerate temperatures well outside this range.
