This structure shows 3 different species of Nepenthes (monkey cups) that we have in Malaysia – Nepenthes albormaginata, Nepenthes ampullaria and Nepenthes gracilis.

In fact, there are just so many kinds of monkey cups in the wild. If you want to see various kinds of Nepenthes without going into a jungle, you can just come to our farm as we have plenty of species on display as we have at least 15-18 different species on display everyday.
