nice, for a reason that I like rafflesiana apart from it's great difference between lower and upper pitcher, it is those "tooth" of it's peristome, a good substitute to those nice highland nep with tooth that can't grow well in my place:smile:

Lovely rich colour tones. And glossy too. Any special feeding/fertiliser? My pitchers seemed to lose the gloss and tone as the plant gets older.

Well its glossy cause i just watered my plant...And its normal for older pitchers too loose its tone and colours...Happens on some of mine too....I just started feeding last month with fish emulsion diluted at 1/4 the strength.

Joining the fun, some pics taken in 2009. Nowadays the pitchers are not so brightly coloured.
