Hello Ed,
What a gorgeous set of pitchers! I'm not all that familiar with N. "Kongkandana" however...
I'm also not really sure why isn't considered as a kind of N. smilesii; which is a fairly widespread and diverse species. But I see the tendrils appear to be longer than for N. smilesii... Perhaps when looking at the plants in person, things are clearer.
Others more experienced and/or knowledgeable about N. "Kongkandana" will have to answer (and it seems you already have a better ID)... The pitchers do look somewhat intermediate between N. smilesii and N. kampotiana, so I can see why it mistakenly got labeled as yet another "N. thorelii".

Hi! Wijaya, was that plant identified by me? If you show us the photo of the leaves or you tell us what province it is from, I'll give a better answer... It might be kongkandana, but also something else...

you're welcome, but that doesn't really look like kongkandana... I'm better find that post and see what I've said exactely... my friend, I remember another case where I identified a plant for you and you understood all the contrary .... let me check... --------------------------------------------------- ok, found mate, you confuse the names kampotiana and kongkandana! there's already a lot of confusion here, stay concentrated! pitcherplants.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=general&thread=7322&page=3I also want to underline something I said in that post: try to find out which province it came from...

@marcello: really sorry for the extra confusion, I make sure I noted it right away - N. kampotiana it is. I bought this plant from Suska Nursery, not sure where he got them from.
Thanks for the re-confirmation.
Ed
