So far the tropical insect eating pitcher plants (
Nepenthes) are growing very nicely. The leaves are waxy and thick, like philodendrons or ficus. I wondered if the would make pitchers in this location - bright sunroom, getting fairly warm - 80s during the day - but so far, so good. Growth seems fast.
These are in full sun. I'm watering daily, 1/8 teaspoon of general purpose miracle grow per 1/2 gallon of rain water. I let the water run through the pot, catching it in a bucket under the hanging plants. Environment is the same as my tomato and pepper and sweet potato starts.
