N. platychila x dactylifera - assorted clones: BE-3847 *Pre-Order*

Nepenthes platychila is famous for its amazing upper pitchers, with peristomes that are either flat or wavy, but never roll back. That influence has partially come through in this cross, resulting in attractive upper pitchers. Both lower and upper pitchers are handsomely leopard-striped in various shades of red, which is the influence of the male parent, Nepenthes dactylifera. At the time of writing (Aug 2026) we haven’t so far raised many clones to large size, and none have yet reached maturity, so we expect to see them become more handsome as time goes by. There is some variability between the clones we have seen so far, in both colouration and form, some of which is illustrated in the photos and videos you can see here.
