Nepenthes burkei, named after British plant collector David Burke, [citation needed] is a tropical pitcher plant native to the island of Mindoro in the Philippines , where it grows at an elevation of 1100–2000 m.[2] It is very closely related to N. sibuyanensis and N. ventricosa. It has only recently entered wider cultivation.

Infraspecific taxa

Two varieties of N. burkei have been described.

  • Nepenthes burkei var. excellens Hort.Veitch ex Marshall (1890)
  • Nepenthes burkei var. prolifica Mast. (1890)[3]
