The pitchers on this plant are elegantly shaped and exquisitely colorful. Each pitcher has a long neck and a bulbous base. The upper pitchers are also equally elegant, like a Grecian urn. The plant grows vigorously as a houseplant on a sunny windowsill and produces lots of pitchers throughout the year. It is an excellent choice for first-time growers.
This complex hybrid was bred by our friend, Sam Estes, of Leilani Nepenthes Nursery.
