Nepenthes Ventrata (Ventricosa X Alata)Here is a more recent picture. This pitcher is 6 inches tall. The perisome is becoming larger, more undulated and turning a brilliant copper color.

Nepenthes Ventrata (Ventricosa X Alata)
I currently have two of these growing in 10 inch pots, with several new sprouts in each. The plants' structure is the same as Nepenthes Alata except the pitchers take on a two tone appearance; mouth and neck are red and the bottom is green, like that of the Nepenthes Ventricosa. The red becomes more intense in higher light conditions, and can fade out in lower lighting |

This is an example of a pitcher grown under higher light conditions. |
