Item Lore

*Nepenthes veitchii* is highly prized by collectors for its unique, broad, and wavy peristome that often develops vibrant striping as the plant matures. Native to the mountains of Borneo, this species is distinct for its epiphytic growth habit, as it frequently climbs trees rather than growing solely in the ground.
