Good Morning fellow Nepenthes Collectors π₯°
Today we would like to spotlight our Nepenthes Attenbourghii Black and give some background information to those collectors seeking the truly unique plants in Australia. This absolutly stunning Nepenthes is in a league of her own. I am so proud to have the seeds from America almost all pop and grow so incredibly well. These small plants are 2 years old, don't be fooled, this Nepenthes is definently taking longer to grow than any other seed grown Nepenthes we here at the nursery at Urban Florae have had the pleasure of watching grow.
I just thought i'd do a little post on the genetics of this plant. Parented by 2 very dark Nepenthes Attenbourghii, these little seedlings are all unique and different.
The undersides of the thick leaves are a very rich, dark ruby red, the tops of the leaves are hairy and growing incredibly detailed for a small plant. The adult specimens pigmentation turns to smokey shades of black, truly a superb little plant. If you are a species collector in Australia, you need to do yourself a favour and get this little gem into your collection. If you are a fan of Attenbourghii, or even the tubby squat, enormous pitchering Nepenthes of the world, you need to jump on this before they sell out.
We currently have a few available for sale, DO NOT miss out and see these incredible plants in peoples collections and posts in the near future, do not hesitate to enquire or purchase one of these majestic plants today through the very approachable team at Urban Florae!!!
Kind regards and wishing everyone a great week ahead,
The team at Urban Florae
