Default Re: N veitchii x fusca

Hi Ken,

Thanks for sharing.

Actually the N.hurrelliana was known to scientist years before it was described as a new species. It was thought to be a hybrid of N.veitchii x fusca. It was later confirmed by another scientist through field study at the site where this plants can be found.

The N.veitchii x fusca that you bought is a MT TC plants. I think it was a horticulture hybrid by Ch'ien Lee when he was at MT.

Below is the photo of the bigger plant N.veitchii x fusca



Base on the photo above, you need to change the media and replace it with new sphagnum moss and if you can control watering, water them about 2-3 days once. Like what Bifurcatum suggested, let it receive a bit more sunlight so that it will produce a more bigger and colourful pitchers.

Thanks
