Nepenthes albomarginata - Carnivorous plant - Pitcher Plant

Description: Nepenthes albomarginata - plug Nepenthes albomarginata is a tropical pitcher plant native to Borneo, Peninsular Malaysia, and Sumatra. The specific epithet albomarginata, formed from the Latin words albus (white) and marginatus (margin), refers to the white band of trichomes that is characteristic of this species. Nepenthes albomarginata is notable for specializing in termites; while most of the species in the genus Nepenthes are unselective about their prey. According to botanist Marlis A. Merbach and coworkers, this specialization to a single prey taxon is unique amongst carnivorous plants. Merbach also points out that N. albomarginata is the only plant species to offer its tissue as a bait. Makes an excellent house plant. Ships as a plug.
