| This is the same Nepenthes in present Health. I do not grow this plant under lights anymore. i grow it in a window sill that provides 2-3 hours of mourning sun. I found that when growned in a windowsill, it is better to mist the plant atleast 2 times a day to create high humidity and large pitchers. i rarely feed this plant, its main food is bright light,water, and high humidity. Hope you guys enjoy the pic.

I got to admit, this plant grew a lot. When i recieved it from Cook's, it only had like 3 small pitchers, after 2 months, i repotted it into a 4" pot(where is currently growing) I grew it under lights for atleast 16 hours a day in the beginning, and sprayed it once a day. Now it grows in the windowsill, that recieves atleast 4 hours of mourning lighting. here are some new pictures of the same , bigger plant.  The plant is still pitchering non-stop.  Here's another pic:  I may be repotting the plant until next year.  |

| Good job. Here is a link to one of my Sanguineas I grow outside with a tiny bit of late afternoon direct sun and the rest under 50% shade cloth. |

| I need some help with this plant.I can't get it to produce pitchers because they dry out when they are very little. I would really appreciate any advice. |
