What type of plant is this?


Question
weird Nepenthes
weird Nepenthes
Allexperts,


Was watching a television show and they were talking about Nepenthes.  I was wondering what type of Nepenthes is the one in the picture with the weird pitcher structure?  I have enclosed a pitcher of the plant that I'm talking about.

Sincerely,

Weylin

Answer
Hi Weylin,

It looks like either a certain form of, or a hybrid of Nepenthes rafflesiana.  The giveaway is the big wings on the front.  Not many other Nepenthes have that.

Good Growing!
