Hi,
the first neps is N.rafflesiana, and the second one is N.ampullaria.
But what makes you think they are dying? They look very healthy in the picture. Don't worry.

Anyway, thanks for ur reply!!

The plants you got are quite big I am sure they will acclimitize really nicely soon. Just make sure they are properly watered.

My brother reacts the same way as you when he sees browning of leaves, I just say no problem they will grow new green leaves soon. And he is talking about my plants, I am not nervous and he is!

TTFN

yeah. ampullaria always has those brown stufuf on the leaves when its too hot or getting acclimatized. sometimes, the whole plant stops producing pitchers for a period when its 'angry'! Well, that's my case. i would just say ampullaria is a wonderful plant but needs delicate care.

Ok welcome Harlem,
Pitchers can last for a month to years.Pitchers like truncata will last for years.
But it's natural for the pitchers to dry up so don't worry!
I think the best place to put them is where they receive morning sunlight till 11 am.(not late afternoon,will burn the leaves)
and continue the rest of the evening.Beware not to change the place too much or else they will stress and that will be ugly..!!Seriously!
