Went looking for N. rafflesiana yesterday with TS and Jonathan down south of Peninsular Malaysia. We could only make it a day trip as we have other commitments but we were determined to go anyway even though the location we were going to took more than 5 hours by car. Add that to the hours looking for the plants and driving back, it adds up to more than 12 hours of driving time. I have never drove for so many hours in one day continuously before in my life... But it was worth it!

Opening upper pitcher Dark brownish/black pitcher upper picther Lower pitcher TS found this one plant of all light green... nivea? Beautiful green uppers Lower pitchers An ant toying with death trying to reach for the nectar below the peristome Intermedia pitcher Different variations of pitcher peristome:
