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%
- hybrids are usually more forgiving of household conditions than either parent
- known for adapting to ordinary homes, whatever its wild range suggests
A cross of intermediate and intermediate parents; hybrids usually take conditions between their parents'.
| Day | 75–88°F (24–31°C) |
| Night | 57–68°F (14–20°C) |
| Never below | 50°F (10°C) |
| Humidity | 60–90% |

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. Estimated for the cross from its parents' habitats, averaged as if from about 775–1,825 m: days 23–31 °C (73–88 °F), nights 13–21 °C (55–70 °F). Night temperatures in an ordinary home are close to its habitat.
Worked out the way Tom's Carnivores' Nepenthes calculator does it: the average of the parents' ranges, each parent passing on half. An estimate: parentage, clone and how a plant was raised all matter, and plants often grow well outside it.
