[Borneo Exotics online catalog page](https://borneoexotics.net/wholesale-shop/products/details.php?id=1520) # N. spectabilis x ‘Viking’ - assorted clones: BE-4523 **The correct scientific _name of this item is_** _**Nepenthes spectabilis x mirabilis var. globosa**__. **We are always delighted at how beautiful hybrids with N. ‘Viking’ can become as they mature. As the photos and videos here** show, this item is exceptionally lovely, combining the red-striped peristome and speckled pitcher body of _Nepenthes spectabilis_ with the pink-hued gradation and wide fringed wings of _Nepenthes_ ‘Viking’. Hybrids don’t always take on the best characteristics of both parent species, but this one certainly does! **History:**  First introduced in May 2022. **Origin:** Horticultural, bred by Borneo Exotics. The female parent is a selected clone of the superbly spectacular giant form of _Nepenthes. spectabilis_, sold under BE-3178, and the male parent is a selected seed-raised individual of _Nepenthes_ ‘Viking’. **Source:** A random selection from a huge number of different clones out of microprop. **Photo notes:** The nursery shots shown here are of the same clone as plants shipped. The last photos in the series show plants of typical sale sizes in order of size S, M & L (when available). **Climate:** 'Intermediate', which means it will flourish in a wide range of temperatures. We have tested it from 12 - 32 deg. C (54 - 90 deg. F), although it will tolerate temperatures outside this range. **Related Videos:** - [Video 1 : Spotlight on N. spectabilis x 'Viking' | BE-4523](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oq398HjaSRo) --- [[Nepenthes spectabilis x mirabilis var. globosa BE-4523]] | [[Nepenthes I've grown]] | [[Nepenthes]]
