Nepenthes Song of Melancholy x (spectabilis x talangensis), CAR-0043
We expect the color from these plants to be absolutely outstanding! Song of Melancholy was of one Leilani Nepenthes's signature crosses and is believed to be Nepenthes boschiana x (spectabilis x veitchii). The male parent is the Borneo Exotics selected clone of spectabilis x talangensis which has a gorgeous squat shape and a color unlike any other Nepenthes we have encountered. It opens up bright yellow and striped and slowly darkens to a deep purple on the edges as the interior stays yellow. We've noticed offspring from this plant to exhibit the same characteristic so there's a lot to look forward to. The plants should grow well under a wide range of conditions.
Plants are seed grown unless otherwise specified.
