Nepenthes appendiculata
A highland pitcher plant known only from the Hose Mountains of central Sarawak, Borneo, at about 1450–1700 m. It is named for the enlarged glandular appendage on the underside of the pitcher lid. Grow it as a typical Bornean highland Nepenthes: cool nights, warm but not hot days, very high humidity and bright filtered light.
Where it grows wild
Montane forest on the Hose Mountains. The published summary does not say whether it grows on the ground or on trees; like most Bornean highland Nepenthes it is presumably a scrambling vine of mossy forest, which is how it is treated here.
About 1450–1700 m, a highland species. No elevation was measured.
