Limp Nepenthes sanguinea: Transplant Shock or Normal?

Chris's N. sanguinea looks limp/wilted for ~1 year (worsening recently). Grown in west window (4–5 hrs direct sun), 2:1 live sphagnum:perlite, rainwater, permanently moist. Repotted 3 weeks ago from pure live sphagnum. Two deRoose's Alata in same spot/care look fine. Pitchers have very little fluid.

Limp Sanguinea

Jeff Dallas: Transplant shock can cause temporary pitchering pause and water stress. But the plant looks healthy overall—may just be this clone's preference for higher humidity. Window heat causes normal humidity fluctuations; this plant may respond more dramatically. Since pitchers have little fluid, add some—it won't harm and mimics natural rain entry.

Good Growing!
