Nepenthes talaandig is a tropical pitcher plant (a climbing liana) from the Pantaron Mountains of central Mindanao, Philippines, found on ultramafic soils near 1,000 m. Grow it like other highland tropical Nepenthes: bright, humid, and with consistently moist roots.
Nepenthes talaandig is a tropical pitcher plant native to the Philippines. It is known only from the Pantaron Mountain Range of central Mindanao, where it grows terrestrially on ultramafic soils at around 1,000 m above sea level.
The describing authors wrote that, based on its pitcher morphology, N. talaandig "is not directly related to any other Philippine species", though they suggested it might belong to the large "N. alata group". This complex includes N. alata, N. ceciliae, N. copelandii, N. cornuta, N. extincta, N. graciliflora, N. hamiguitanensis, N. kitanglad, N. kurata, N. leyte, N. mindanaoensis, N. negros, N. ramos, N. saranganiensis, and N. ultra.
