This tropical pitcher plant (Nepenthes) x Bill Bailey is named after English comedian Bill Bailey. This striking carnivorous plant is a cross between two Nepenthes species: Nepenthes singalana and Nepenthes ventricosa. This tropical pitcher plant (Nepenthes x Bill Bailey) has distinctive pitchers that combine traits from both parent plants. The pitchers are often slender with a colorful peristome (the rim of the pitcher) ranging from reddish to yellow-green. This tropical plant is prized as one of the easier Nepenthes hybrids to grow.

Nepenthes x Bill Bailey is a relatively easy plant compared to other Nepenthes species, making it a good choice for beginner pitcher plant enthusiasts. Bright, indirect light is ideal. Avoid direct sunlight, as this can burn the leaves. This Nepenthes hybrid thrives in a wide range of temperatures. Daytime temperatures between 20-30°C and nighttime temperatures around 15-20°C are ideal. High humidity (above 50%) is important for growing healthy pitchers. Regular misting or using a terrarium can help. An airy, well-draining mixture is essential. Commonly used substrates include a mix of sphagnum moss, perlite, and orchid bark.
