N. ampullaria Green

I must admit I'm not a nep. fan but couldn't resist photographing this in one of my field trip recently.

Found it in one of the jungle trial in Penang. A rare sight when it comes to a place dominated by N. albomarginata red. Only a small colony but with very healthy pitchers around.

Hi Lim,

Thanks for the pictures. How much shade are they growing under? Hmm, don seem to see the vine from this fella. Is there a vine? Did you get to peep into the pitchers? Are there insects or plant debris?

Heh, heh, so much questions. Just want to learn more about these amps in the wild.

Andy,

nice shots of the amps. Didn't know they live so close to the sea.

Next time you come across phytons and king cobras, post their pictures. Remember not to use flash for the king cobras, or we might not hear from you again. http://s4.images.proboards.com/grin.gif http://s4.images.proboards.com/grin.gif

David, Sorry! I did not peep into the pitcher. They look very clean form the outside. I guess they are rather new. It grows out from the peat bog area. Rather large single plant I can say. Unfortunately there's only 1 single plant in that area.

Isaac, I will specially post em for you....... http://s4.images.proboards.com/cheesy.gif http://s4.images.proboards.com/cheesy.gif
