I grow them like that......except the media.I though it was an LL and bought it and found out it was a HL and thought it was doomed but......It lived

my sanguinea leaves tend to curl up for the first few weeks when i bring them home, all pitchers dried off... now the plant looks better and can see pitchers on the way

This species produces very large pitchers.Pitchers in my plant exceeds 32cm.

Do not expose it to full sunlight after bringing it home.The leaves tend to dry up in a couple of days.Try misting it as frequently as possible since they originally came from Cameron Highlands (YG Park)

I grow my sanginea the same way I grow my x miranda. Low quality sphagnum moss + full sun + filtered water + little shade sometimes + humidity 60-80% = an average plant. Hehe.

I think mine is rock wool or something except peat and sphagnum.My pitcher all got crushed up because it was too big and spilled it's juices every where in the car (haha)
