Nepenthes × miranda Acclimation: Old Pitchers Die, New Ones Form

A recently acquired N. × miranda shows drying old pitchers and yellowing lower leaves, but new pitchers and healthy leaves emerge. Jeff Dallas explains: old pitchers from the humid Florida greenhouse naturally die off. The plant needs more sun—N. miranda develops reddish leaves in good light. Remove dead pitchers at the tendril and yellow leaves. Ensure free drainage.

Good Growing!
