Description

Nepenthes spectabilis x ventricosa BE-3745. This is a star item! This item has featured in many of Borneo Exotics gold medal winning Chelsea Flower Show exhibits, as well as being a centrepiece on their huge 2008 Singapore Garden Festival exhibit. It’s easy to grow, being vigorous and quite temperature tolerant, making it an ideal beginners’ plant.

First introduced to cultivation in Jan 2017. This cross was sold briefly under BE-3373 as a random selection of clones from microprop and as it was popular, BE later isolated the most attractive clone to market under BE-3745. It was first added to the shop in Oct 2020 and quickly sold out, returning in March 2021 when it again sold out immediately.

The female parent is our unique giant N. spectabilis, which gives the pitchers of this cross most of their colourful characteristics and the male parent confers extreme vigor.
