Nepenthes merrilliana x aristolochioides

Description

Highly recommonded! Nepenthes merrilliana x aristolochioides is a cross between two very different species. The female parent N. merilliana is a lowlander that produces some of the largest pitchers in the genus. The male parent N.

aristolochioides is a highlander that produces little egg shaped pitchers with iconic vertical pitcher opening. As a result, this hybrid can tolerate wide range of temperature and it has decent sized, tubby or egg shaped pitchers with vertical openings.
