| N. singalana lower pitcher |
| With a lovely crimson color and markings reminiscent of some varieties of N. sanguinea, N. singalana is a fine addition to one's collection. It can grow from a 2 cm diameter to maturity in about two years. Basal shoots typically begin to appear after the plant is around 30 cm in length. Small, making it a good choice for those with limited growing space. |
