N. sanguinea - grown in garden soil
« Thread Started on Jun 16, 2007, 11:42pm » One of my favourite - sanguinea with 5 red pitchers. The plant is grown in garden soil. Largest pitcher is 12 cm and the smallest 6 cm. In the background is another sanguinea with two upper pitchers.

Almost all the other sanguineas I got from the Sg Buloh nurseries are giving me small leaves and small pitchers. They are Cameron Highland clones.
