    I was bored

    First off, I apologise for the sloppy quality of the pics. Nepenthes rajah. Whoever said it was a fussy, slow grower? I received this plant in September as a 5" "monster". Much credit goes to Simon Lumb who sent me such a healthy plant from Borneo Exotics. After a month of growth I knew it...
