Description:

Nepenthes hamata is a carnivorous plant native to the highlands of Sulawesi, known for its dramatic, fang-like teeth on the peristome. It thrives in warm days and cool nights, requiring good light and humidity.

Nepenthes hamata is rare in cultivation and is often grown in greenhouses, where it can adapt to temperature and humidity fluctuations.
