Nepenthes x spectabilis x rajah Greenhouse-Bred Highland Hybrid (Shipped Bare-Root)

This greenhouse-bred highland hybrid pairs Nepenthes spectabilis from North Sumatra's Batak highlands with the legendary N. rajah of Mount Kinabalu — uniting two of Borneo and Sumatra's most sought-after species into a cross that promises massive, darkly pigmented pitchers with prominent peristomes and serious collector appeal.

Carefully cultivated in our greenhouse for optimal health and vigor, this N. x spectabilis x rajah thrives in highland conditions mimicking Borneo’s misty 1,200–2,200m elevations: daytime temps of 70–80°F, nighttime drops to 55–65°F, high humidity (70–90%), bright indirect light, and pure water. Perfect for grow chambers or greenhouses, this hybrid can adapt to terrariums or wide pots as it matures, showcasing its unique rosette growth and climbing tendencies. Its petite pitchers are already adept at trapping insects, blending function with fascination.

•  Color Palette: Vibrant with red-purple speckles and mottling

•  Growth Habit: Rosette to climbing, ideal for spacious setups
