This is perhaps the smallest species in the genus and has pitchers that mimic the appearance of those of the giant N. merrilliana in form, but at a tiny fraction of their size. The diminutive growth habit of the plant makes it great for compact spaces, such as terrariums.History:First introduced in 2005 and then unavailable for 10 years from 2012 until 2022.Origin:HorticulturalSource:From a single carefully selected clone chosen many years ago as the best out of 24 clones for its orange and red pitcher colouration and contrasting lime-green peristome.Photo notes:The last photos in the series show typical sale plants of sizes Small, Medium & Large (when available),

Climate:Lowland. We find it grows best between about 32 deg. C (90 deg. F) in the daytime, down to 24 deg. C (75 deg. F) at night, although it will tolerate temperatures outside this range.
Now even better!As of Jan 2025, the quality of all items grown in our indoor facilities has been further improved. This includes all items classified as 'lowland,' such as this one. Items in our indoor facilities are now grown under extremely hard conditions, with high light levels and have super-tough leaves, making them much easier to establish.
