Nepenthes copelandii, Leilani (Rooted Cutting)
Rooted Cuttings
Plants grown via rooted cutting often produce larger plants quicker than plants grown from seed or tissue culture. They are also genetically identical to its mother plant.
This species is native to the Philippines and part of the alata-complex. It has dark mottled pitchers with a slightly bulbous base. We acquired this particular clone from Sam Estes at Leilani Nepenthes Nursery during the 2010s.
