It is rainy season now and the weather getting cooler esp at night. The garden grasses also need trimming. I noticed the raff are pitchering and fresh. sharing with everyone 2 varieties of raff var nigropurpurea.

#1 more visible speckle around the the wings and bottom of the pitcher.

The strips peristome more conspicuous while #2 tend to be more dark red in nature.

Hi Daren, lowlanders are easy for us. with the natural tropical weather we only need to provide shade and well drain media and was about all, besides watering once every 2-3 days.

How do you grow your raff-window sills or tank? If you can post in a new thread and we can discuss about it.
