- Keep soil moist; but well drained at all times. Do Not let your Nepenthes sit in water

- Soil is mixture 3 parts long fiber sphagnum with 1 part perlite or 1 part fine orchid bark.
- Fertilize Nepenthes with foliar fertilizer. ¼ tsp of Maxsea per gallon of water, 2 times a month
- Nepenthes like to grow warm: above 50 degrees. Ideal is 65 to 80 degrees with high humidity.
Kevin William –
I ordered my Maxima x Ramispina and it arrived in only 2 days. Package showed up safe and sound. The plant inside was in great condition. I have never had my jaw drop when unboxing a plant before, but it did when I saw the beautiful dark almost black pitchers on this plant. It is going to become a centerpiece for my collection for sure in the future.
