Agreed^^^
Nepenthes ventricosa is an amazing species. I love how it stays relatively compact as it grows. Really pretty pitchers, too.

Thanks for the vote of confidence Dennis Z.! I do have a knack for growing plants. My studio has 16' ceilings so it's the nightly temperature drops that I have a problem with. Helis and Cephs are some others that I'd like to grow as well. I did build a mezanine 8' up and it was built so as to grow herbs and some veggies but the CPs got in first and staked their territory there!

My 3 favourites:
N. rajah N. villosa N. macrophylla......N. edwardsiana
I can't....can't leave eddie out. lol
Nothing beats the joy of seeing the huge rajah pitchers. It is a dream of mine to one day grow N. rajah plants to adult hood. That would be amazing to have the famed pitchers that can hold 2L of water.

Robcantleyi/Veitchii Edwardsiana/Villosa Hamata/Bicalcarata top 6 jumble up any 3 and they'd be top.

Hamata (who can resist its monstrous teeth) Rafflesiana var. Alata (if plants could fly...) Sanguinea (so easy to grow, what's not to love)
