2 more hints and that's it! If no one guesses right, I'll just blurt it out!

<span style='font-size:17pt;line-height:100%'><span style='color:blue'>HINTS:</span></span>

- one of the final two is considered to be a primitive Nepenthes species
- The last one is used as an herb in it's native land and is thought to be able to help people that have malaria.

#5 IS NEPENTHES DISTILLATORIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[sarracenialuver]

#5 is....................



RAFFLESANIA (im bad at spelling)

 

[mindmaze128]

Nope.. sorry but that is incorrect.

here's a rehash of the hints for the last one:

1) it's a lowland plant
2) it's fairly rare in cultivation in the USA (AFAIK)
3) it's endemic to only one of the major islands in the Malesian region
4) it's considered to be a primitive Nepenthes species

 

[nepenthes gracilis]

A toughy!Hm.......is it N.Madagascariensis? That is a primative Nep.  

 

Did I get it!?!?

 

[sarracenialuver]

is it N.Eustachya?
