N. robcantleyi x ampullaria – selected clone: BE-3767 LARGE
This handsome item was selected from a large number of candidate clones for its vibrant colouration, as well as being an easy grower. Because of the lowland-highland parentage, it tolerates a wide range of temperatures.
History: First introduced in June 2017.
Origin: Horticultural, bred by Borneo Exotics. The female parent is the superb cultivar of the species N. robcantleyi called Nepenthes ‘Queen of Hearts’, which has been exhibited world-wide many times and the male parent is a selected clone of N. ampullaria ‘Brunei red’ with collection ID: CR-34.
Source: From a single carefully selected clone.
Photo notes: Plants shipped are of the same clone as shown in these photos.
Climate: Intermediate
Ships bareroot. You will need to provide your own pot and more potting substrate when the plant arrives. Extra care will be needed as the pre-order plants will need to be acclimated slowly to your conditions. This means low light and high humidity initially. Check out this video that I helped write for the ICPS on “How to acclimate your carnivorous plants.” To see the size and quality of our imports watch this video.
