Nepenthes burbidgeae BE 3848

$ 40.00 – $ 80.00

First introduced Sept 2018 by Borneo Exotics. . Borneo Exotics isolated this clone from among very many for its spectacular coloration. It varies from the usual N. burbidgeae coloration in that it has far more red in the pitcher than is usual for the species and is exceptionally beautiful. This item originated from legally collected seeds, originating from the Pig Hill area of Mt. Kinabalu, just outside the boundary of the National Park.

Pitchers are usually red speckled on a cream background with red striped peristome. From a single carefully selected clone out of microprop. Plants are in 4 inch pots with long fiber sphagnum moss and perlite.

Tropical Pitcher Plant (Nepenthes sp.) Care

  • Best to use only pure water – rainwater, distilled water or RO water. Be careful of bottled water as some contain salt which will kill your Tropical Pitcher plant
  • Keep a small amount of pure water in each trap. Mist plants regularly.
  • Keep soil moist; but well drained at all times. Do Not let your Nepenthes sit in water
  • Nepenthes like partial sunny location. They grow well on windowsills or under fluorescent lights in a terrarium.
  • Soil is mixture 3 parts long fiber sphagnum with 1 part perlite or 1 part fine orchid bark.
  • Fertilize Nepenthes with foliar fertilizer. ¼ tsp of Maxsea per gallon of water, 2 times a month
  • Nepenthes like to grow warm: above 50 degrees. Ideal is 65 to 80 degrees with high humidity.

Note: Pitchers will change in color and shape as they mature. Often there are also several different clones in our mix, so the pitchers may vary slightly for this reason as well.
