This plant has really attracted the ants this year. I wish all nepenthes were as easy to grow as this one. One can dream, anyway.

Mistakes were made

I've been growing mine in South Florida for about 3 years before I moved to Northern Florida where it's still doing great. It'll handle your temps fine!

Heck yea it will! Mine handles those temps just fine. The leaves turn red where hit directly with sunlight, but are otherwise normal.
Here's a pic of the whole plant. It was a tad smaller than that lower offshoot when I bought it. The entire climbing portion, as well as the two offshoots, was done in roughly a year and a few months.
It's very easy to care for! Perfect for being my only nepenthes.
