Bought a new nep from Pearl River Exotics and Im very impressed with the shipping a quality of the plant. Definately would recommend them to anyone looking to buy a new plant.

Vary nice. I was under the impression that clay pots where bad for CP. I could be wrong but you might want to look into that. I’d hate to see such a nice plant die from a pot.

Neps are more tolerant of minerals than most CP and it gets top watered weekly with rain water.

Do you always keep it at that windowsill? I have 3 very small neps that I am keeping near a window. I am worried about the temperature drop. Has this been a problem for you?

If they are Hiland Neps they like a temp drop at night.

Yes I know. I am just worried about them actually getting a drop. I currently mist them at night and put a ice pack near them. I close the blinds to insulate the cold around them a little more.

I am new to this hobby so I am still getting the hang of things.
