N. tentaculata – selected clone

Returning for May 2025 after more than six months! Named for its characteristic bristles on the upper surface of the pitcher lids, this elegant species is one of the most diminutive. It’s unusual for a highland Nepenthes species, in that it’s usually found growing in shaded areas on the forest floor.This is not an easy species to grow well, but rewarding if conditions are right. This particular clone was selected over decades from amongst many, for its relative ease of growth.Last returned:May 2025Description:First introduced in June 2018Origin:HorticulturalSource:From a single carefully selected clone.Photo notes:Plants shipped are of the same clone as shown in these photos. The last photos in the series show plants of typical sale sizes in order of size S, M & L (when available).Climate:This is a highland item. 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 may tolerate temperatures well outside this range.
