YG park

By friend recommendations, we made a visit to a YG park nursery. It located about 8-9 kilometers away from Equatorial hotel in Cameron highland opposite to a Tea shop.

This nursery carrying enormous amount of carnivorous plants (CP) and its largest CP supplier in this region, to a CP’s enthusiast like me this is a place I must visit.

Ms Leong (the right in the picture) was my tour guide, she is well knowledgeable in CP’s and also very kind in sharing her experience with my wife.

First stop, Sarracenia’s section. Can someone help me to identify the species!

    Hi Joshua,

    In my opinion, the unidentified nepenthes look like campunulata or pervilei, if they are species.

    Regards,

    Joseph
