N. mirabilis along the Cambodian coast

[sockhom]

Hello,


Here is a tribute to N. mirabilis, an underrated species, as far as I can see. ;-)



I observed it several times along the Cambodian coast. I won't give you new informations about that widespread species. It grows in wet spots and in open habitats. Most of the plants I saw look exactly like the pictures I used to admire in the Nepenthaceae literature.

Just enjoy those elegant "pots"!

N. mirabilis near Kampong Som (Sihanoukville):

Open habitat, wet, with short shrubs and grasses.







This pitcher looks like N. clipeata 's, doesn"t it?






The most beautiful mirabilis in Cambodia (as far as I know) are found in Kbal Chay:

Hope you enjoyed the gallery!

Hey Socky,


Another great gallery!

The variation amongst the plants is interesting and very beautiful... :smiling:
I really like the ones with the flattened peristome.

Happy Growing,

Brian
