Nepenthes 'Samsara'

Nepenthes 'Samsara'

A fully rooted cutting of this impressive Diflora hybrid, grown on in our own collection and fully acclimatised to local conditions. Combining the influence of boschiana, campanulata, globosa and maxima, Samsara is known for its elegant speckled pitchers, rich red-brown peristome and vigorous growth.

Although smaller than our larger specimen plants, this cutting has an established root system and developing pitchers, making it an excellent choice for growers who enjoy watching a plant mature over time. Its compact size also makes it particularly well suited to terrariums and smaller growing spaces.

Quick FAQ

Why Pargo and not PUDO?

• Just a quick heads-up: Since plants are natural products, you might notice some slight variations when unboxing your plants
• We do our best to make sure the plants you receive look like the ones in the photos, but keep in mind that seasons change and plants grow. Some leaves might age and die off, new ones might sprout and the plants may look a bit different over time
• Cultivo is a boutique-style store and 99% of what we sell are one-of-a-kind collector items, so you will receive the exact plant pictured. Some are once-off or limited releases, which means they are available only while stocks last. The labels are spot on, so even if the plant looks a bit different, we 100% guarantee it’s the real deal
• Also, all the photos you see are of our own plants unless we mention otherwise. We update images occasionally to keep things fresh. If you want to see updated pictures before you buy, just let us know - we’re happy to help!
