- Is it normal for nepenthes to smell when they digest their food?
Cause if it is, I won't be able to have it in my room I think..

Thanks in advantage :-)

I think thats perfectly normal... if something is decaying inside the pitcher then that smell of decay should escape from the pitcher opening. I dont think that the pitcher fluids have a substance that could retard that smell of decay.
