Nepenthes lowii /nɪˈpɛnθiːz ˈloʊiaɪ/, or Low's pitcher-plant,[4] is a tropical pitcher plant endemic to Borneo. It is named after Hugh Low, who discovered it on Mount Kinabalu. This species is perhaps the most unusual in the genus, being characterised by its strongly constricted upper pitchers, which bear a greatly reduced peristome and a reflexed lid with numerous bristles on its lower surface.[5]
