Gorgeous plants. N. tenax is a really elegant species. Is the area dangerous, Phil? Any crocodiles?
Cheers,
François Mey

Hey Phil,
Wonderful N. tenax photos.
It is truly a wonderful species...
Is N. tenax ever exposed to very dry conditions 'in situ'?
Happy Growing,
Brian.

I didn't know that there were any neps that can grow in full sun like that. Maybe I'll try giving a couple of mine more light.

Sockhom I didn't see any sign of crocodiles but felt very uncomfortable as we were treading in water all the time. The area was rife with wild pigs so there was tunnels through all the thickets.
Brian, it appears that N. tenax has wet feet all the time. It was fairly dry when we were there so when the wet season starts, the plants would stay very wet.
Itecato All of the plants grew in full very hot sun. If you check many of the highlands Nepenthes, they are growing in full sun. Cheers Phill
