Nepenthes 'Boca Rose'
''Nepenthes'' 'Boca Rose' is a cultivar of a complex manmade hybrid involving '' N. maxima'', '' N. mirabilis'', '' N. northiana'', '' N. rafflesiana'', '' N. veitchii'', and a plant identified as '' N. thorelii''. It was bred by Bruce Lee Bednar and Orgel Clyde Bramblett in 1990.Schlauer, J. N.d''Nepenthes'' 'Boca Rose'. Carnivorous Plant Database. This cultivar name is not established as it was published without a description, violating Article 24.1 of the International Code of Nomenclature for Cultivated Plants, and Jan Schlauer considers the epithet "doubtfully acceptable" as it may conflict with Article 19.24. ''Nepenthes'' 'Boca Rose' is a synonym of '' N. × hareliana'' and was originally published in the March 1994 issue of the ''Carnivorous Plant Newsletter'' as "x hareliana var. “Boca Rose”". Other cultivars of the same cross include ''N.'' 'Alba', ''N.'' 'Red Skeleton', ''N.'' 'Rouge', and ''N.'' 'Vittata'. __NOTOC__ See ...

Nepenthes × Hareliana
''Nepenthes'' () is a genus of carnivorous plants, also known as tropical pitcher plants, or monkey cups, in the monotypic family Nepenthaceae. The genus includes about 170 species, and numerous natural and many cultivated hybrids. They are mostly liana-forming plants of the Old World tropics, ranging from South China, Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Philippines; westward to Madagascar (two species) and the Seychelles (one); southward to Australia (four) and New Caledonia (one); and northward to India (one) and Sri Lanka (one). The greatest diversity occurs on Borneo, Sumatra, and the Philippines, with many endemic species. Many are plants of hot, humid, lowland areas, but the majority are tropical montane plants, receiving warm days but cool to cold, humid nights year round. A few are considered tropical alpine, with cool days and nights near freezing. The name "monkey cups" refers to the fact that monkeys were once thought to drink rainwater from the pitchers.

Nepenthes Bokorensis
''Nepenthes bokorensis'' is a tropical pitcher plant endemic to Cambodia. It is known from Mount Bokor (also ''Phnom Bokor'' or Bokor Hill) in the south of the country, and an as yet undetermined specimen suggests that it may also be present in other parts of the Dâmrei Mountains of Kampot Province. The specific epithet ''bokorensis'' refers to both Mount Bokor and Bokor National Park. Botanical history Despite only being formally described in 2009, ''N. bokorensis'' has been known since at least the early 20th century. The oldest known herbarium specimens are three taken by French plant collector C. Geoffray on January 14, 1904. Two of these consist of lower pitchers with leaves, while the third comprises upper pitchers with leaves. All three specimens were collected from Popokvil falls, Mount Bokor, and are deposited at the Museum National d'Histoire Naturelle in Paris. The next known collection of this species was made by J. E. Vidal in 1965. It consists of a plant ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
