I am not sure of the exact origin of the name N. gracilis "giant" but the
plant came from Henning Von Schmelling. He thought the plant was just a
giant form of N. gracilis but I suspect it is a hybrid - (N. reinwardtiana x
gracilis). Which is why I labeled as such, with a "?"

Take care & keep on growing,
