A non-broadcast documentary (made just for fun) filmed during a 2010 expedition led by Stewart McPherson in search of new species of carnivorous pitcher plants (Nepenthes).
In this 23 minute film, Stewart McPherson travels to the island of Palawan in the Philippines, to climb a previously unexplored mountain. Along the journey, in uncharted territory, Stewart finds evidence of a little known tribe, a newly discovered carnivorous sundew (Drosera ultramafica) and a brand new species of carnivorous pitcher plant (which he later named Nepenthes leonardoi).
A full account of the discovery of Nepenthes leonardoi and many other spectacular new Nepenthes species is provided in the recently published book title New Nepenthes Volume 1 (available from Redfern Natural History).
Filmed by Greg Bourke.
