Nepenthes lowii (Trusmadi x Murud) is a sought-after horticultural cross that originated in Europe. Native to upper montane regions in Borneo, it is renowned for its unique feeding strategy - using a sugary exudate on the lid of its pitchers to attract tree shrews and birds and feed on their droppings
To ensure its success, Nepenthes lowii requires intermediate to highland temperatures and a humid environment. Proper drainage is crucial for its health, especially during its younger years, so we recommend using net pots, a live sphagnum topdressing and a growing media mix with a high proportion of perlite or other coarse, well-draining components. Remember to let the soil dry out slightly between waterings for optimal growth
This plant is fully acclimatised and sent potted
