Natural Hybrids
Natural hybrids involving N. burbidgeae appear to be relatively rare and only four have been recorded to date. Three of these (crosses with N. edwardsiana, N. fusca, and N. tentaculata) have received little attention in the scientific literature, but N. burbidgeae × N. rajah has been described as N. × alisaputrana and is famous for producing huge pitchers rivalling those of N. rajah in size.

Famous quotes containing the word natural:
“The common notions that we find in credit around us and infused into our souls by our fathers’ seed, these seem to be the universal and natural ones. Whence it comes to pass that what is off the hinges of custom, people believe to be off the hinges of reason.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
