For those of you who had asked me about the pitcher in the background from the photo I posted in "Live Sphagnum Moss" .... well it is a sanguinea.
It receives morning sun
Close-up. Nice cool green peristome.
N. sanguinea is the first pitcher plant I have been exposed to. When I was young I collected sanguinea whenever my family spent holidays in Fraser's Hill and Cameron Highlands. Of course I didn't know the name then. I only found out when I took a pitcher to Ch'ien Lee to identify during an International Orchid Conference some 5 years ago. From then on I am hooked on to nepenthes.
