A helpful chart for learning more about where your Napenthes is endemic to. Identify highland, lowland, intermediate, UH, and UL plants.

Useful! I never knew that n. leonardoi is an intermediate; there are some fairly new neps (introduced to cultivation) in the chart which makes it all the better. Thanks for sharing

Always looking for 1 more nepenthes.

Hmm. The chart is also useful in helping to better manage (hybrids). You don't see hybrid names on the chart I noticed only natural species. But by knowing the altitudinal information of 'each' plant in the hybrid you can approximate the appropriate care.
