nepethes


Question
will my nepenthes do well outside in a green house the plant is very small I live in NY

Answer
Hello Kyle,

Most Nepenthes would do well in a greenhouse so long as the temperatures remain above 50-60 degrees all year long and as long as the plant gets partial sun. Place the plant near larger plants where it can get some strong, but slightly shaded light between the larger plants leaves and branches. If you note less coloration on the Nepenthes or inadequate pitcher growth, place it in slightly more intense or less shaded areas until the plant grows normally. Nepenthes tend to grow under large trees and get a few hours of light in the morning and afternoon with bright indirect light all day streaming between tree limbs.
