any experience with this species? I heard it eats a lot of termites.

saw this species today at the MAHA exhibition but forgot to ask about it.

Nice!!!!!!...............My penang red albo lost all its pitchers because of my stupidity.......I know they grow in full sun but after i bought it i put it into direct sun immediatly and so now it only has one pitcher which it just grew after the stress.

I found albo prefer drier media, so let the media dry a bit in between watering seems to promote growth provided all the other factors are also in optimal level as well. Hope this help.

Hi Cpnut

Well i've read of that...........And also seen those in the wild they live in very dry conditions....For my albo i water excatly the same as all my other neps once everyday 2 days...And i mist it sometimes.Well my albo is fine...but i could have been better if i wasn't that stupid hehe

They can also live in drier conditions.I mist all my plants twice so they are all pitcher nicely

My albo always shrink when its dehydrated

If you mist your plants,do it in daily basis Ken or else your plants will be stressed.

Well I water my black albo when its dry(Actually I do this to all my neps, when the sphagnum is dry I water until its wet).I rarely mist it. I put it in full sun after I bought it. So far no side effects. Already produced 4-5 new pitchers.

wow! thanks for the info guys.. actually ive googled this species but cant find much info on it...

but ive read somewhere that it likes direct sunlight.. so now.. the trick is to slowly introduce it to direct sunlight..

and i must water it sparingly..
