Nepenthes 'Bloody Mary' is a hybrid of Nepenthes ventricosa and Nepenthes ampullaria. It grows pitchers of an amazing, very intense, bright red colour. A very fast grower with a beautiful pitcher shape.
Genus epithet 'Nepenthes' derived from Greek terms 'ne' (not) and 'penthos' (sorrow, grief), meaning 'no sorrow' or 'banished sorrow', as based on the ancient Greek name for an antidepressant drug called 'Nepenthe' which drives away all sorrows by the means of forgetfulness, and used here in connection with the reported medicinal qualities of some Nepenthes species.
