Nepenthes halmahera is a climbing tropical pitcher plant from Halmahera in North Maluku, Indonesia, grown for its hanging traps. It grows in open, nutrient-poor ultramafic soils, so it needs bright light, high humidity and carnivorous-plant care.
Nepenthes halmahera is a tropical pitcher plant native to the island of Halmahera, North Maluku, Indonesia. In 2015, it was considered confined to the Weda Bay Nickel Project concession area, growing in open areas on ultramafic substrates at altitudes of 10–760 metres (30–2,490 ft). However, the 2018 IUCN assessment found the species to be common in the Weda Bay area. The type specimen used to be regarded as an aberrant representative of N. danseri.
