While this Nepenthes is marketed simply as Black Miracle, it's actually a hybrid - N. mirabilis var. globosa x ampullaria Black Miracle. It has unusual features you won't find in most Nepenthes. One parent is N. ampullaria Black Miracle, known for its dark pitchers and leaves. Its coloration shows through, creating dark red pitchers and black splashes on its leaves. Its peristome is beautifully striped. This plant appreciates warm nights (above 65°F) and warm days (above 75°F).
