Wanna remind you though that rajah ahs a very big root system and by time passes you will have difficulty repotting the plants or they won't grow properly.

Just an advice;)

Great advice as well .... I planted mine in the biggest pot i had a 10"inch pot an used some advice from one of the best Rajah Growing in the US.
"Set it an Forget it " until watering time

rewarding in the end for a serious grower, but thats why we can make hybrids...to make them more 'vicious looking' and vigorous at the same time; Like mixing villosa and sanguinea or hamata and ventricosa.

That sure cost a bomb!!! :spinning:

For me, I will not try those H/L plants. Since, there is H/L nepenthes at my house that didnt produce or just produce small size pitcher. :sweating:

So vincent..how you grow your H/L neps?

Re: Nepenthes Rajah
 
they grow in a west facing windowsill,so at this time of year it gets especially cold by the window, all of them like it except 'red flush' bicalcaratas and mirabilis var.echinostoma. I water them every 3-5 days, pots are on a wire mesh atop water trays, so excess water pools and then become humididty when i cant treat them to the atomizer. i have a lighting system as well that is running from 6 am to 10 pm. Last, i grow my highland plants with my lowland plants. As time has passed since i got these plants in august, they have adapted to the environment i have given them, except for 3 plants, which will take longer. they are going to town
