Nepenthes Dyeriana in a 3.5" pot
Nepenthes dyeriana is a truly iconic carnivorous plant with a rich history dating back to the Victorian era. Discovered in the Philippines, it quickly captivated plant enthusiasts with its large, dramatic pitchers. These pitchers can grow to impressive sizes, often exceeding a foot in length, and are adorned with intricate patterns and vibrant colors.
The specific epithet "dyeriana" honors William Turner Thiselton-Dyer, a renowned British botanist who played a significant role in the cultivation and study of carnivorous plants during the Victorian era.
This pre-potted plant arrives in a 3.5" pot, nestled in sphagnum moss. While it can be a bit more challenging to care for than some other Nepenthes species, it rewards patient growers with its extraordinary beauty and historical significance.
