Carnivorous Nepenthes albomarginata
The name refers to the white band of hairs at the top of its pitchers, which means “white-collared pitcher plant”. Beautiful Nepenthes albomarginata has a scrambling or climbing growth habit, said to reach up to 13′ long!Â
Keep in a warm and bright spot with some humidity, appreciates a bit of morning sun – avoid mid day direct sunlight. Ensure the medium never dries out completely, maintain consistent moisture but be sure it has proper drainage and does not remain soggy- do not allow your Nepenthes to sit in water. Â Use rainwater, distilled water or reverse osmosis water. Be careful with bottled water as these may contain salt which will kill your pitcher plant. Keep a small amount of water in each pitcher!
