Hi All, This is the latest addition to my nepenthes collection. Have a guess what the species is. This is the plant and close-up of a pitcher This pitcher is only 11 cm. In the right environment, the pitcher can attain a length of 25cm. Note that the peristome is fold back. In nature it is an epiphyte, growing in canopies of trees 15-25 m Cheers Choong

Yes Issac, it is from Indonesia - central Java. Now there it not many native nepenthes species in Java.

Look like gymnamohora. But the pitcher in this case was shorter, perhaps clone variation.

;Dwonderful piece. 1000m should be fine provided you keep it in cool airy place and no direct sun.

Choong, you are so lucky to get such a rare species. I did not know it was N. adrianii.

Where have you been David? Have the ministry of internal affairs withdrawn your visit rights to the internet cafe?
The picture shown above is that of a squat variant. By all accounts I have read, adrianii adapts pretty well to lowlands. Right now the plants (yes plants) are recovering the shock of staying in the post for over 7 days!
Well, I hope my contact can help me get the REAL clipeata.

Choong,
You sure have very powerful contacts in Indonesia.
Nice plant, can't wait for the new pitchers to grow and see your update again.
Rgds, Isaac
