The water I use is regular filtered water but there are no side effects. The humidity around my area can get as low as 50% on a very hot day and 80% on a rainy day but the average humidity is 70%. My N. x Miranda gets full sun but is sometimes shaded by the surrounding houses as I live in a Semi-D house. The vines can get pretty long and produce not-so-attractive upper pitchers but mine has sprouted basals with lower pitchers now. I have grown mine for about 2 years now(I think). It grows very fast and vigorously. My plant has flowered 2 times and each flower stalk can get as long as 25 cm. Well, that's all.
Is it?Then I'll get one!
