Triphyophyllum peltatum is one of the least known carnivorous plants and, apart from a few botanical gardens, has so far been practically uncultivated.
This tropical liana from West Africa is characterised by the fact that it only occasionally forms leaves that catch and digest insects. These trapping leaves are reminiscent of Drosera, Byblis or Drosophyllum.
In cultivation, the formation of trapping leaves can be triggered by phosphate deficiency.
An absolutely fascinating plant!!!
