This beautiful Pitcher-plant is the result of a cross between an unnamed species with deeply - coloured pitchers and the well-known Nepenthes distillatoria. Our figure of this is also taken from a photograph of a plant growing in Messrs Veitch's nursery. It produces, as will be observed, its pitchers in great profusion even on very small plants. They are of moderate size, and are very densely covered with dark-red spots on a pale-green ground. The habit is compact and very-neat, which renders it most suitable for being grown in baskets and suspended from the roofs of houses.

Nepenthes Sedeni.
