Nepenthes 'Ted Payne' is a cultivar of a manmade hybrid involving N. maxima and N. northiana. This cultivar name is not established as it was published without a description, violating Article 24.1 of the International Code of Nomenclature for Cultivated Plants.[2] It is a later synonym of N. × mixta.[2]
In 1987, Bruce Lee Bednar and Orgel Clyde Bramblett crossed a male N. 'Ted Payne' with a female N. mirabilis.[1] This hybrid was one of the few Bednar and Bramblett crosses of the time to not be named.[1] The cultivar name 'Ted Payne' first appeared in print in the March 1994 issue of the Carnivorous Plant Newsletter as part of this cross; it was listed as "mirabilis x Ted Payne".[1]
