Nepthenes problem?
I have had this plant for 8 months. I received it as a gift and it was full of pitchers when I got it. I repotted and it has been hanging under a tree which is quite shaded but gets spotty sun.
Plant has tripled in size since I got it. The leaves are enormous, healthy, deep green.
It appears to be making pitchers but they are small or under the leaves. They don't hang as they are short. The large leaves which hang outside the pot appear to start to make pitchers but they dry up. They never form, the long stem grows and then the end turns brown.
I can't figure out if this is normal or there is a problem. I thought it might be getting too much light so moved it to a darker part of the tree.
One other point. I am in Florida (Gulf Coast), where it is rainy season. There are downpours daily. Temps are high (90's) and humidity about the same. Its like a steam-bath!
Anyone run into this?
Thanks,
Jane
