I bought this as a mixed lowland nepenthes. It has serrated/spiky leaf edges that look very nice. I know it could be a hybrid just wondering if anyone recognizes this plant? Thank you!
Dionae - i can almost guarantee that nep is a mirabilis variant.... the fimbriated leaves (the little spines if you will, along the leaves) the shape of its leaves, the attachments, down to its growth habit... I almost leaned in the direction of an amp/mirabilis hybrid because in the first photo it appeared that the leaves were covered in the odd dust/fluff that ampullaria tends to get on its leaves... Give it some time to grow, but im fairly certain what you have is indeed a mirabilis.
Dionae- N. globosa is a variety of mirabilis, literally N. mirabilis var. globosa
Every part of var. globosa is identical to your standard mirabilis outside of the obvious pitcher morphology, and some var. globosa have a tuberous root stock, which is more of a locale thing...
