Re: Guess Guess Guess 1
Easy lah Lim,
This photo was taken in the wild and the background pitcher is a giveaway. Benstonei. Mostly likely taken, during your trip to Kelantan and Terengganu with Michael back in 2007. Choong |
Re: Guess Guess Guess 1
Hi Choong,
I think the plants is N.hisute. |
Re: Guess Guess Guess 1
This photo I took few months ago. Not in Kelantan or Terengganu. But somewhere in Peninsular Malaysia. The habitat consider as lowland.
|
Re: Guess Guess Guess 1
TranMinh, hirsuta pitchers are green not red in colour.
|
Re: Guess Guess Guess 1
Lim,
If it is not benstonei, it must be one of the "N. smilesii like" plant that was found on G. Machinchang, Langkawi back in 2007. Are the upper pitchers tall and slim? Choong |

I know of someone who has a red hirsuta plant. But you are right, I also do not think this is hirsuta. The pitchers and background of the habitat do not seem to fit. |
Re: Guess Guess Guess 1
Well, just to throw something into the guessing game; N. reinwardiana?
|
Re: Guess Guess Guess 1
Peninsular Malaysia got no wild N. reinwardtiana and N. hirsuta. Its not N. gracilis and N. benstonei too. I haven't been Gunung Machinchang yet. So, the N. smilesii alike Nep is out!
|
Re: Guess Guess Guess 1
Lim,
I got it now. It is rafflesiana. Choong |
Re: Guess Guess Guess 1
hmm....is that a gracillima?
|
Re: Guess Guess Guess 1
let me guess...n. tricocarpa?
Any tips on either it's a hybrid or pure breed? |
Re: Guess Guess Guess 1
I think it's N. gracilis x rafflesiana ...
|
Re: Guess Guess Guess 1
A N. macfarlanei!
|
Re: Guess Guess Guess 1
Sorry Kevyn and Shawn, Lim stated it's from Low land...
Take a good look at the background pithcer... it's a good clue. |
Re: Guess Guess Guess 1

Re: Guess Guess Guess 1

|
Re: Guess Guess Guess 1

Re: Guess Guess Guess 1

|

Re: Guess Guess Guess 1
The leaves are definitly shows gracilis ancestry........(i think :p )
|
Re: Guess Guess Guess 1
Suck at guessing games unless it is a rajah or lowii or hamata. @ Marvin, you are just not growing it good enough, my miranda is becoming a weed and grasshoppers are trimming it (which i hate!).
|
Re: Guess Guess Guess 1
Happy New Year all,
I will like to take a guess, probably a variant of N. mirabilis or might be a natural hybrid of N. mirabilis x gracilis or other way around. :biggrin: Ed |
Re: Guess Guess Guess 1
Let me guess....gracilis x rafflesiana...
The spur and vaulted lid is raff like, and the peristome colouration too. |
Re: Guess Guess Guess 1
I think about gacillis x rafflesiana too, leaf and pitcher.
|
Re: Guess Guess Guess 1
Yeah, not to mention the 'bulging' lower half of the pitcher, which excludes many 'slender' species as parents
|
Re: Guess Guess Guess 1
Another point... as far as I know, the only L/L nepenthes found in Peninsular Malaysia that consistently produce striped peristome can only be found in N. rafflesiana. Couple this with the fact that the plant also have decurrent leaves, hence I firmly believe it's a hybrid of N. gracilis x rafflesiana or vice versa.
|
Re: Guess Guess Guess 1
Yes. It is N. gracilis x rafflesiana! The winner is NepNut! :1thumbup:

Re: Guess Guess Guess 1
Well. NepNut. What prize you want? Nepenthes, Sarracenia, Drosera, Pinguicula, Byblis, Dionaea, Utricularia? Choose 1 genus. I choose the species for you.
