I bought this plant several months ago and it has done some strange things.

First it did this

Now it has decided to start growing

It has 5 new leaves growing at same time

This is why I always recommend you don't water is with kryptonite...

I'm more amazed that you only paid $3.50 for that plant? Where on Earth (or maybe in this case Mars) did you get that?

Looks like a keeper to me!

This thing is either just out of tissue culture or very, very robust and ambitious.

The place I bought it from has 2-3 trays of them for $3.50 so I bought 8 of them. I have had it for more than 7 months. At the start it only had the one leaf at a time and was not doing much for the first few months.

Anyone have any idea what kind it is?

 

[Archer15]

The tag that was on it when I got it said it was Nepenthes Mirabilis. But after finding out my Edwardsiana x Burbidgeae is not what it was labeled as I'm not sure.

It's just surprising, since most of the one's they sell in my neck of the woods are just N. x 'Ventrata' and N. x 'Judith Finn.' Clearly, I'm in the wrong neck of the woods...
