Dear Sir,
Thanks a lot for sharing the pics. Atleast you have seen them in wild, you are lucky...
And special thanks for Arundina graminifolia "Nepenthes".
What species are they by the way? This one looks like N. khasiana but I thought they were endemic to India.
Regards
Pankaj

Ok let me rethink... this looks more like Nepenthes mirabilis. I am counting on the raised ring on the belly which is running around the pitcher.
