Nepenthes spectabilis ‚Bandahara‘ x mira 40cm

Nepenthes spectabilis ‘Bandahara’ × mira is an unusual pitcher plant hybrid with elongated, oval pitchers reaching around 20 cm. Rather than the stripes you might expect from spectabilis, its peristome opens orange and gradually deepens to dark red. A quirky cross that I appreciate for its distinctive shape and changing colours.
