Hello everyone,

I have received N. Jamban to my Highland terrarium last week, unfortunately some leaves started to yellow. I use only quality destiled water, plant is not standing in the water, it is potted in mix of live and dry sphagnum.

Humidity: 70-80%
Day temperatures are about 22 degrees celsius (72 °F) and night temperatures around 16 °C (60 °F)

Any suggestions, how can i stop this? Can it be because it is acclimatizing? This is not my first highland nepenthes, but it is the only one, which is causing problems.

Thank you

im not a nepenthes expert but since Jamban's origin is from my island, i can tell you that the temperature here is about 30C day and 23C night . also the local nep grower like to use mixes of perlite and cocopeat. myb because coconut is in abundance here.

also Jamban literally means toilet bowl in my language :D it does look like toilet bowl eh.

Haha, all these informations are new for me, thank you for explanation, nice to meet someone, who has these plants literally at home :D In my country there you can only rarely find Drosera rotundifolia.

Also info about temperatures is interesting, everywhere they say that it needs as low temperatures as possible.

Thanks!
