Description

The Nepenthes x “Briggsiana”. It is a hybrid of Nepenthes lowii and Nepenthes ventricosa.  This plant is a great starter plant, as it grows quite quickly, grows beautiful large pitchers (with lid hairs!) and is suited to many ranges of conditions provided slightly higher humidity. It consumes insects to gain nutrients which it uses with photosynthesis to grow. Please read our care instructions for an idea of how to care for these plants.

This plant will ship bare-root wrapped in a small amount of its media. It will be roughly the size of the plant shown in the potted photo and is sized to grow in a 3.5″ pot. The other picture is the adult plant’s pitchers.

Key Features:

• Fascinating pitchers: Creates amazing striped pitchers quite readily when given proper conditions.
• Insect Eater: Eats many types of insects.
• Striking Appearance: Beautiful glossy leaves and strange shaped pitchers.
• Versatile Growth: Can thrive indoors in a slightly lower humidity than other pitcher plants so long as other conditions are dialed in.

Care Instructions:

• Light: Prefers bright, indirect sunlight. Some direct light is okay.
• Water: Keep soil moist at all times.
• Soil: Best grown in nutrient-poor, well-draining soil like sphagnum moss mixed with perlite.

Perfect for those who appreciate the natural beauty of carnivorous plants and seek a larger pitchered plant addition to their collection!
