Tropical pitcher plants come from Asia and Indonesia, and are a wonderful conversation piece, especially when grown in a hanging basket. Nepenthes ventricosa is no exception! Each leaf forms a tendril on the tip, which gives rise to a beautifully sculptured pitcher on the end. The pitchers of this species have a beautifully scalloped peristome (lip), and turn a beautiful reddish color as they mature as well. Adult plants can be over two feet across! These plants average up to 3 or more inches across. Shipped potted in 3-inch pots, ready to grow. Just add water! |
