Nepenthes "Coconut Tree"
The conditions must be very harsh for them to grow like that. Signs of being scorch by the sun over and over again.

Re: Nepenthes "Coconut Tree"
Interesting, especailly the second one looks like it has just been there for so many years, never being able to turn into a 'big' plant it has just kept turning out enough leaves to keep a green canopy and a fresh batch of pitchers to keep it alive!

Re: Nepenthes "Coconut Tree"
Interesting.. Thanks for sharing..
 what species are these BTW..? growing on such an inhospitable rock surface, I would suspect it to be something like northiana or albo (but leaves don't look like albo)..

Re: Nepenthes "Coconut Tree"
I have seen gracilis in such state in a disturbed heath forest where trees were chopped by wood cutters thus exposed the forest and made barren progressively. This demonstrate their survival adaptation in a very harsh environment that non will be able to made in an open heath forest, already deprived of nutrients.
