We were rejects from the latest BE order in July

I grow my campa in life sphagnum moss, it produced pitchers but small. I didn't know it require drier condition to thrive. I watered twice every day! (my campa must be angry for me doing that ) After seeing this thread, I quickly move it to a drier spot where it won't get any rain but only morning sun (bright for the rest of the day), and I cut down the watering now. I think I should transplant it to burnt earth to get big pitchers.
Cindy, is it OK to let it receive some direct morning sunlight?

[bifurcatum]

I use LFS for my campa. It gets direct sunlight from about 1p.m. to 5p.m.. And it's growing well.
Here my little campa.^_^

Maybe some of you missed the following...That pitcher was formed with the plant growing in LFS and perlite.

TS, N. campanulata loves light.

[kentosaurs]

Hmmm anyone has a adult plant or has cuttings for it?? Is it rare to find in cultivation or average?Since it loves heat and light it should be easy to care for

Ken, the species is very compact and doesn't vine. So taking a cutting is not easy although I have actually done it before and succeeded in rooting it. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone 'cos for the 2 months, I found myself checking on the cutting every chance I had. I was paranoid because it was my only medium sized campanulata at that time and it was very hard to come by.

Why I took a cutting? Because I thought it was suffering from root rot. It wasn't. When I cut the stem, I nearly cried seeing a very healthy core. The lower part of the stem didn't send out any new shoots and subsequently died.

N. campanulata sends out offshoots/runners occasionally so these are a better source of new plants.

Cindy, since you also grow campa in mineral rich burnt earth, do you still fertilize the plant or add osmocote into the media?

[Cindy]

Nope, no extra stuff given to the plants in burnt earth.
