Nepenthes (aristolochioides x spectabilis) x hamata BE-4574

Description from BE:

At the time of launch, we still only have juvenile pitchers of this item, but we believe the photos shown here will turn out to be representative. The peristome is nearly black, which is a trait conferred from the male parent.

Note for 10 Feb 2023: When juvenile, some plants have dark red leaves and others green, as shown in the last photo in the series. It seems as though the red leaf colouration may not be maintained as plants mature, but in case it is, plants shipped are hand-selected all to be specimens with red leaves.

History: First introduced to cultivation in Feb 2023.

Origin: Horticultural, bred by Borneo Exotics from specimen parent plants.

Source: A random selection from many different clones out of microprop.

Photo notes: Photos are of representative clones and may not be identical to plants shipped.

Climate: Highland

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.
