????????? 15 degrees max temp?????????

Nepenthes are tropical plants...That temperature is to cold for your plant to be happy.

Should I keep it inside instead??

Because I overlooked that

Depends. What are your temps inside?

If your place is really cold then try Highland neps...

I live in Australia, so winters are apparently too cold, but summers can be really hot, might keep it in a well lit area inside, and spray it too keep up humidity?

As long as the temperature and conditions are good it should go back to normal...

Try growing australian CPs like Cephalotus, pygmy sundews, and tuberous sundews, but it depends in what part of Australia you live in.

If you want to grow neps try moving to the very nearby country called "Indonesia", I'll be waiting there

Thank you for your help! I have repotted it in 1:1 sphagnum and pertile and have put it in a light sunny spot inside where it is warmer. I must have stressed it out soo much by changing it all the time, so hopefully it will be happy now.

Yeah I saw them growing like weeds when I was in Borneo, beautiful plants!

Thanks everyone
