This plant is distinguished by its slender silhouette, its bright white color, and its remarkable vigor, to the point of being nicknamed "Mirek's Rocket" by some French growers even before its registration with the ICPS. This nickname inspired its final name, a reference to the American Atlas V rocket launcher used from the early 2000s until the early 2020s. Especially since this plant was referenced by Mirek as clone number 5 of this cross. A true destiny, even in its name.
This plant produces large, upright, and sturdy pitchers that can reach nearly a meter in height. The upper part of the traps is dominated by broad white areas finely veined with red, with an intensely colored throat. The wide, slightly funnel-shaped peristome and the heart-shaped lid give it its unique appearance.
This plant is officially registered with the ICPS.
