N. eymae – assorted clones

Nepenthes eymae exhibits very different upper and lower pitchers – a feature known as ‘dimorphism’, which can be observed in various guises in many Nepenthes. Dimorphism seen in this species was a key descriptor in the original 1884 paper by Shigeo Kurata. The upper pitchers are curiously infundibular, resembling a wine glass in shape. It was introduced to cultivation by John Turnbull and Anne Middleton, and all the clones arising from BE-3736 resemble the renowned ‘Turnbull and Middleton clone’ quite closely, with some being nearly identical. For a while, until we had produced many upper pitchers on many different clones, we were cautious about naming this item as the true species and used to sell it under a disclaimer, but for years now, we have been confident that BE-3736 is the real deal. We encourage you to check out the videos here!Last returned:Sept 2025History:First introduced in Sep 2016.Origin:HorticulturalSource:A random selection from a large number of different clones.Photo notes:The nursery shots shown here are of the same clone as the plants shipped, and other photos are of plants in habitat. The last photos in the series show plants of typical sale sizes in order of size S, M & L (when available).Climate:Highland. We grow it between about 26 deg. C (80 deg. F) in the daytime, down to 12 deg. C (54 deg. F) at night, although it will certainly tolerate temperatures well outside this range.
