One of the most spectacular plants in the collection when it hits maturity. This south Borneo species can produce traps more than a foot tall (between 8-10 inches is average), and this clone develops extremely bulbous based lowers with a slender funnel-shaped upper section, small fringed wings, and a broad, curving, heavily scalloped peristome that flares backward behind the mouth. Color is deep maroon with black-purple mottling, the peristome rapidly aging to similarly black with maroon edges, contrasting the white and grape-speckled interior. Upper pitchers are similarly sized, and at first similarly colored but further up the vine usually lose the bulbous base and become paler cream with red mottling and red striped peristomes. A known female, it has produced several spectacular hybrids.
Available plants are rooted stem cuttings with new growth points between 3-6 inches in diameter.
