What can we say, Nepenthes hamata<\/em> has it all! Without a doubt one of the most sought after and rare of all carnivorous plants.<\/span><\/p>\n

Endemic to upper and lower montane mossy forests of the Indonesian Island of Sulawesi. N. hamata<\/em> features pitchers with spectacular, highly flanged “toothy” peristomes, striking colouration and form, as well as crazy looking, medusa-like bristles that project off the lid. These features only become more pronounced (and awesome) with age and the upper pitchers may be the most viciously bizarre traps of all carnivorous plants.<\/span><\/p>\n

Although not particularly difficult to grow if given standard highland growing conditions, we’ve found that\u00a0N. hamata<\/em> has a couple of peculiarities in it’s growing preferences compared to most Nepenthes<\/em>. The native habitat of N. hamata<\/em> has very high humidity, wet soils, and it often somewhat shaded, in order to grow this species well these conditions should be mimicked in cultivation as closely as possible.<\/span><\/p>\n

Because of its rarity and it’s strong preference for stable, humid highland conditions, we recommend N. hamata<\/em> for experienced growers only.<\/span><\/p>\n

Que pouvons-nous dire, Nepenthes hamata<\/em> a tout! Sans aucun doute l’une des plantes les plus recherch\u00e9es et les plus rares de toutes les plantes carnivores. <\/span><\/p>\n

End\u00e9mique des for\u00eats moussues montanes sup\u00e9rieures et inf\u00e9rieures de l’\u00eele Indon\u00e9sienne de Sulawesi. N. hamata<\/em> propose des pichets avec des peristomes “dents” spectaculaires, tr\u00e8s brul\u00e9s, une coloration et une forme frappantes, ainsi que des poils semblables \u00e0 des m\u00e9duses qui se projettent sur le couvercle. Ces caract\u00e9ristiques ne deviennent plus prononc\u00e9es (et g\u00e9nial) avec l’\u00e2ge et les pichets sup\u00e9rieurs peuvent \u00eatre les pi\u00e8ges les plus v\u00e9ctricement bizarres de toutes les plantes carnivores. <\/span><\/p>\n

Bien que n’\u00e9tant pas particuli\u00e8rement difficile \u00e0 cultiver si on lui donne des conditions normales de d\u00e9veloppement des hautes terres, nous avons constat\u00e9 que N. hamata<\/em> a quelques particularit\u00e9s dans ses pr\u00e9f\u00e9rences croissantes par rapport \u00e0 la plupart des Nepenthes<\/em>. L’habitat indig\u00e8ne de N. hamata<\/em> a une humidit\u00e9 tr\u00e8s \u00e9lev\u00e9e, des sols humides, et il est souvent assez ombrag\u00e9, afin de bien cultiver cette esp\u00e8ce, ces conditions devraient \u00eatre imit\u00e9es dans la culture le plus pr\u00e8s possible.<\/span><\/p>\n

En raison de sa raret\u00e9 et de sa forte pr\u00e9f\u00e9rence pour des conditions de montagne stables et humides, nous recommandons N. hamata<\/em> uniquement pour les cultivateurs exp\u00e9riment\u00e9s. <\/span><\/p>\n
