This plant should be very interesting when it produces its upper pitchers.  It's technically a complex hybrid, Nepenthes maxima x (lowii x macrophylla).  If you're familiar with N. lowii and N. macrophylla, you'll already understand why this plant holds lots of promise!

As true with most hybrids, this one is much more vigorous than its parents and adapts well to a wide range of growing conditions.  It adapts well as a houseplant, though cool nights would be helpful. Grow it in a bright sunny windowsill, such as a south window.
