| Found on a number of mountains in Borneo, the particular varieties depicted are from G. Raya and G. Kinabalu, respectively. This species seems to require consistent, high humidity to ensure proper pitcher formation. Rate of growth is similar to that of most highland species. Rather unique due to the elliptical shape of the pitcher mouth, this species is a good terrarium candidate because of its small size. |
