Northiana is a slow grower but fairly easy to grow. Only that it doesn't like acidic soil like LFS. sumatrana is rare as it is lately discovered as endangered. If you are impatient, then sumatrana is the best. But northiana is like a LL rajah.

Well sumatrana to me sounds much more easier to be grown by looking at the people growing them..but as you said northiana are slower growers..........Yeah i know that northiana likes limestone if i'm not wrong.......I thought sumatrana could rival northiana but i guess i'm wrong....Which one are more sensitive to light....What i mean is which needs more shaded conditions
