Nepenthes sibuyanensis x ampullaria BE 3994

$ 35.00

First introduced Nov 2019 by Borneo Exotics. The female parent is Nepenthes sibuyanensis selected from those sold under BE-3164 and the male parent is Nepenthes ampullaria ‘Harlequin’ formerly sold many years ago as clone CR-73.
The pitchers are relatively large and curiously pipe shaped. The coloration in the clones Borneo Exotics has seen  is variable, with most appearing red speckled on a yellow background but a small proportion of them have more red in their pitcher bodies and peristomes.
This cross is classed as an ‘intermediate grower’ and can be expected to tolerate a very wide range of temperatures.
Plants are medium in size and are potted in a 3.5 inch pot filled with long fiber sphagnum moss plus perlite. Plants are a random selection from very many clones out of microprop.

These are still young plants as of September 2021, as the pictures show. However they are growing quickly!

Nepenthes sibuyanensis x ampullaria BE 3994

Climate: Intermediate

ropical 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 65 degrees. Ideal is 70 to 84 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.
