Default Wild Gracilis and...???

Hey guys, went for a holiday with my family near the border of terengganu and well found some neps there Its my first time seeing wild lowland neps and well that made my day Here are the pictures.

Here are some of the huge gracilis i found...Kinda hard to miss even though you're going at 80kmph








Had to be careful not to step on them




Some of the inflorences




Found some redder ones too




Well after walking for awhile i saw this bigger nep..Was actually looking for mirabilis so i thought it was a mirabilis...Upon closer inspection i realised it was Nepenthes Rafflesiana!






Lots of younger plants under the ferns too


Well and this is the best form i found


Had to get a picture with it






Well thats about it....Never knew i could find raffs in this area Great find for a newbie like me
