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 380–1,800 m: days 23–33 °C (73–91 °F), nights 13–23 °C (55–73 °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.
