Product information "Nepenthes mirabilis var. echinostoma"
N. mirabilis var. echinostoma shows a feature that is unique in the genus. The unusually broad peristome shows tentacle-like outgrowths. Especially when opening the pitchers, these protrude particularly far and are conspicuous. Incredibly bizarre!
The name "Echinostoma" translates to "sea urchin mouth/opening" and aptly describes the appearance of the appendages of this variety.
In the wild, N. mirabilis var. echinostoma is known to occur in Brunei and Sarawak, where it is found at 0-200 m.a.s.l. in the lowlands.
Many have been waiting for this unique variety and now it is finally available!
