FlytrapCare Carnivorous Plant Forums

I purchased this nepenthes at a garden center about year ago, and as usual it was not labeled with the species. I know that Nepenthes Miranda are commonly sold at garden centers, but as this one ages it doesn't show the typical characteristics of a Miranda (such as the toothy peristome and the bulbous shape seen in the picture). If anyone could help identify this more accurately it would be greatly appreciated!

Maybe Nepenthes x hookeriana? I see some ampullaria in there.

pb93+ - I think your plant is Nepenthes x hookeriana, which is Nepenthes rafflesiana crossed with Nepenthes ampullaria.

This defenitely looks like Hookeriana. Uncommon plant too, congrats!

If you're thinking about care, humidity >60% RH and warmish temps, and filtered light will do this one good.

kinda looks like a 'Suki' also.

This is 100% a nepenthes suki

Yeah it does look like a suki too. Do you have a picture of the tendril? Does it like do form pitchers when they are touching the media?

I'll have to take a few more pictures later tonight. But it does produce long tentrils for its size, even when it was younger.

Wow garden centers around me only carry ventrata, cool find

The garden centers near me carry typical vfts, Nepenthes ventricosa, and boxes that contain a vft and sarracenia rhizome during the winter.
