Default Re: nepenthes rajah in cameron highlands.

Dear members,

90% of cps comes from YG Park. I have the opportunity to visit the park on Tuesday. The plants that YG are selling comes from Malesiana Tropicals years ago. This sibuyanensis is no exception. I spoke to the lady in charge of growing the cps and she told me the sibuyanensis and chaniana (ex-pilosa) stock are gone. NO MORE. So if you are in Cameron Highlands and happen to find these plants, bargain with the sellers. Otherwise you will have to buy small size plants from BE in US$.

I will write a thread on YG Park with photos later and review their MT stock. There are some new plants coming out soon.

Size does matters.Those Rm25-RM35 are usually small plants for rarer neps.
