Drosera fulva sundew form:east of Girraween Lagoon, N.T. Nepenthes ventricosa x ovata produces

Nepenthes ventricosa x ovata produces squat pitchers with a widely flared peristome

We’ve seen previous crosses done with Giant “alata” and truncata produce extremely vigorous plants with great pitcher to leaf ratios and we expect the same from these

Some have an iridescent deep cherry red color while others are extremely squat with a wide peristome

It has a toothy peristome and is often colored a deep red

Drosera fulva sundew form:east of Girraween Lagoon, N.T. Nepenthes ventricosa x ovata producesThe petiolaris complex group of sundews are some of the most interesting of genus. Drosera fulva is a beautiful species with with wide petioles and orbicular traps. The plants are from the Northern Territory in Australia and prefer hot temperatures, lots of light and high humidity.
