N. bicalcarata is a true lowland species requiring constant warmth (80–90°F) and high humidity (70%+). Even in our greenhouse with regular misting, it fails to pitcher when nights are cool. On a windowsill in Idaho (25–60% humidity), it will not thrive.
Keep it in a heated terrarium or warm greenhouse year-round. Most growers succeed only with highland/intermediate species (N. sanguinea, N. ventricosa, N. ventrata) in typical home conditions.
We may offer bicalcarata, ampullaria, and rafflesiana at a discount in July if they remain pitcherless.
Good growing!
