Hi everyone.. I was planning on buying myself a nepenthes but I can't seem to identify the plant. I know highland and lowland plants need different care so I wanted to make sure it's more of a highland plant as my days are relatively warm and nights colder. Please help me. Also I'm a beginner so any extra help with the prep for the plant will help. Thanks.

My guess is that it is a vetricosa and the AI Nepenthes Identifier agrees with me. https://www.carnivorousplants.co.uk/res ... dentifier/

And is this the same plant. I noticed this one has a more red tint in its leaf center.

Thanks alot Panman. Is there a specific pic you uploaded? Cause it says truncata by me. My apologies for the questions I am just really eager to get my first nepenthes.

It isn't super precise but you need to drag the selection bars down so that only one pitcher is selected and as much background is excluded.
