Check out this pitcher. The shape look likes N. mirabilis. But inside the pitcher got some speckles just likes N. benstonei.

And also the leaves are not as broad as N. mirabilis. But also not very slender like N. benstonei. Could it be the natural hybrid between N. mirabilis and N. benstonei?

Thanks for viewing my old trip!


To Shawn: Yes, the blue plant look more like Pandanus. But I not sure what species is it.

OMG!!!!!!Those are very beautiful wild neps. And cute fish too. Looks so cute I feel like feeding it to my plants.(I know I'm sick) Hahaha snap so many photos until camera battery ran out. Love those cute amps. feel like squeezing them. I hope this place won't get destroyed. So many places already cleared. What a pity.
