The leaves can easily reach 60 cm in length, sometimes even more. It reaches a diameter of approximately 120 cm and a length of several meters.

Glands beneath the pitcher lid secrete a sugary nectar that is consumed by mountain tree shrews ( \u003cem\u003eTupaia montana\u003c\/em\u003e ). The pitchers are shaped in such a way that the shrews are forced to sit on them in such a way that their excrement falls into the pitcher. \u003cem\u003eN. macrophylla\u003c\/em\u003e lives off these nutrients.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDue to the required significant nighttime temperature drop and the sensitivity of this species, it should be reserved for experienced \u003cem\u003eNepenthes\u003c\/em\u003e keepers.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e You will receive a well-hardened young plant, approximately 3 to 5cm in diameter in a 5.5cm pot (see picture 2 \u0026amp; 3 in the gallery).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Clone: ​​BCP N1998-11\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12px;\"\u003eNature photos: © Amon Horngacher (used with permission)\u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"Jungle Leaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56319556157817,"sku":"Nep007","price":79.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0951\/8389\/6953\/files\/Nepenthes-macrophylla-02.jpg?v=1764923321","url":"https:\/\/www.jungle-leaves.de\/en\/products\/nepenthes-macrophylla-gunung-trusmadi-borneo","provider":"Jungle Leaves","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
