Nepenthes eymae JB x {Song of Melancholy x [(lowii x veitchii) x boschiana]} #1

Nepenthes eymae JB x {Song of Melancholy x [(lowii x veitchii) x boschiana]} #1is another awesome cross out of Carnivero's breeding program.  Eymae and maxima hybrids are almost always very vigorous and the SOM x LVB parent in this cross is one of our best breeders.

Each pod contains 25-50 seeds.  We can't guarantee germination since we have never grown this cross out but we have inspected all pods and they have obviously viable-looking embryos.

Nepenthes seeds are best sown on a layer of milled sphagnum moss or well leached coco peat above a more traditional Nepenthes mix.  They should be kept in a moderately well lit area (50-100 ppfd).  The seeds need to be kept wet and humid in the 60-80 temperature range and will usually germinate in 4-8 weeks.

Seed was harvested in mid January 2023.
