Nepenthes Maxima X Northiana

 

Nepenthes Miranda

Nepenthes is a genus of carnivorous plants which can be successfully cultivated in greenhouses. They should only be watered with rainwater, given plenty of bright light (though some species can grow in full sun), a well-drained medium, good air circulation and relatively high humidity. Nepenthes x Miranda is a cross between Nepenthes maxima and Nepanthes northiana. It is a large, robust tropical pitcher plant, with large, speckled pitchers that can be over 18" with a wide mouth, and a hood that is narrow, and the wings are wide and ruffled. It is heat tolerant. It can be grown outdoors in the warm weather.

Propogation

From Early Spring TO Early Spring

Plants can be propagated by seed, cuttings, and tissue culture. Seeds are usually sown on damp chopped Sphagnum moss, or on sterile plant tissue culture media once they have been properly disinfected.

 

Propogation by cuttings

From Early Spring TO Early Spring

Cuttings may be rooted in damp Sphagnum moss in a plastic bag or tank with high humidity and moderate light. They can begin to root in one to two months and start to form pitchers in about six months.

 

Planting young plants

From Early Spring TO Early Spring

Plant young plants in a 1:1 mixture of orchid medium with moss or perlite.
