About this plant
A rarely offered pure Nepenthes species, Nepenthes pulchra was only described in 2011 from Mt. Kiamo, Mindanao, Philippines.
The name “pulchra” means “beautiful” – and this highland species lives up to its name.
Nepenthes pulchra is a fast grower known for its impressive size and colour. In the wild (1300–1800m elevation), it thrives in mineral-rich soil and prefers intermediate to highland conditions – making it well suited for setups in South Africa.
- Lower pitchers reach up to 35cm – deep red, delicately marbled on the outside with a pale, violet-tinged interior.
- Upper pitchers can grow up to 42cm – long, narrow, and funnel-shaped with a rounded base.
This is a special Wistuba clone (CS01) – a pure species import, now fully acclimatised and ready to thrive in your collection.
