Product information "Nepenthes pitopangii ("Speckled form")"
Nepenthes pitopangii is extremely endangered, as the species description was based on only one known individual and only years later a second small population with about twelve plants was found.
The lower pitchers of this species are very reminiscent of N. glabrata in shape and markings but are deep red, the upper pitchers are uniquely funnel-shaped. This speckled form has yellow-green upperswith a red spotted pattern, red peristome, and reddish-green lid.
Despite the high endangerment status of this species in nature, the plants offered here can be taken over without a guilty conscience, as this comes from responsible in vitro micropropagation and thus does not pollute natural populations.
