Nepenthes ‘Viking’ × ampullaria
Nepenthes ‘Viking’ × ampullaria
Nepenthes ‘Viking’ × ampullaria is a tropical pitcher plant hybrid combining the colourful, robust characteristics associated with ‘Viking’ with the compact, distinctive pitchers of N. ampullaria. Young plants can develop richly coloured red to burgundy pitchers while remaining compact, making this an attractive addition to a Nepenthes collection.
This plant is supplied established in a high-humidity transition cup. Keep it warm, humid and under bright filtered light while gradually acclimating it to your growing conditions. Avoid allowing the growing medium to dry completely, but do not leave the plant permanently waterlogged.
As the plant matures, pitcher shape, colour and growth habit can vary between individual seedlings of this hybrid.
Fact Sheet
- Genus: Nepenthes
- Hybrid: ‘Viking’ × ampullaria
- Type: Tropical pitcher plant
- Light: Bright filtered light
- Water: Rainwater, distilled or low-mineral water
- Humidity: Moderate to high
- Temperature: Warm/intermediate conditions
What’s Included
One Nepenthes ‘Viking’ × ampullaria plant supplied in a transition cup. Plant size, pitcher number and colour may vary from the photographs.
A tissue culture plants are grown in clear gel, transparent container that holds multiple young plants (typically 3 or more) grown under laboratory conditions.
Our Gel Cup are non-sterile gel media that we use for start the hardening process after a plant has been in tissue culture.These vessels provide a carefully controlled environment, keeping the plants healthy as the get ready to transition to standard growing conditions.
Quick Hardening Steps:
- Open Lid Gradually: Slightly open the cup to slowly reduce humidity.
- Maintain Humidity: Gradually decrease humidity over 2–4 weeks.
- Indirect Light: Start with gentle, indirect lighting.
- Moist Soil: Keep media damp, never wet.
- Monitor Closely: Slowly increase airflow and light exposure.
Each transparent Transition Cup (5 cm diameter × 7 cm height) contains a juvenile carnivorous plant that has moved beyond sterile tissue culture and into a structured transition medium.
Inside, you’ll find a young carnivorous plant securely planted in a semi-solid blend designed to support root development while easing the shift from gel to soil.
This carefully balanced environment maintains optimal humidity and airflow, helping reduce transplant shock and supporting the plant during this critical transition stage.
Suitable for both novice growers and experienced collectors, Transition Cups provide a reliable, low-stress way to guide delicate carnivorous plants toward successful soil establishment.
Each transparent carnivorous cup (5 cm diameter x 7 cm height) contains a juvenile carnivorous plant freshly transitioned from tissue culture.
Inside, you'll find a young carnivorous plant planted securely in special growing media soil that replicates their natural habitat.
This carefully balanced environment maintains optimal humidity, aiding the delicate plants during their crucial hardening-off stage.
Perfect for both novice growers and experienced collectors, these cups provide a simple and effective way to cultivate and enjoy captivating insect-eating plants.
