Hydnophytum spec. "Potatoes on a String

Product information "Hydnophytum spec. "Potatoes on a String"

This is an undescribed species. The plants form a tuber on their stems about every 10-30 cm. They are found in raised bog-like situations where they grow in competition with the Sphagnum moss and other vegetation. With the formation of secondary tubers, they manage to keep pace with the moss growth and still always have tubers above the substrate surface. 

The original location of the species is near Waghete, in the highlands of Papua. It occurs there in the vicinity of the well-known Nepenthes klossii.
