Growing conditions
Intermediate Nepenthes by day by night a typical home the coldest it takes
Good houseplant Grows in an ordinary home with a bright window or a grow light.
- bright window or grow light
- most adapt to household humidity once acclimated; pitchering improves above 50%
- known for adapting to ordinary homes, whatever its wild range suggests
Grows at 40–2,600 m in the wild.
| Day | 75–88°F (24–31°C) |
| Night | 57–68°F (14–20°C) |
| Never below | 50°F (10°C) |
| Humidity | 60–90% |
| Light | Bright indirect light or partial sun |
| Water | Mineral-free only (rain, distilled, RO; TDS under ~100 ppm, ideally much lower); damp, not waterlogged; no tray. |
| Media | Long-fibre sphagnum + perlite, optional orchid bark |
| Dormancy | none |
Tom's species pages: N. peltata (865-1635 m) 24-31C days / 14-21C nights; N. glandulifera (1100-1700 m) 24-30C / 14-20C. Most tolerant group; many hybrids grow here.
Likely best temperatures. From its habitat at 40–2,600 m: days 19–35 °C (66–95 °F), nights 9–25 °C (48–77 °F). Night temperatures in an ordinary home are close to its habitat.
Worked out the way Tom's Carnivores' Nepenthes calculator does it. An estimate: parentage, clone and how a plant was raised all matter, and plants often grow well outside it.
