Item Lore

This hybrid crosses the iconic, massive traps of *Nepenthes rajah* with the distinctive, hairy peristome of *Nepenthes veitchii*. Collectors prize this cross for its ability to combine the immense size of the mother plant with the vigorous, epiphytic growth habits and striking aesthetic patterns inherited from its father.
