N. truncata Cultivation guide
Species: N. truncata
Highland/Lowland: Highland & Intermediate Country of Origin: Philippines Natural Habitat: Described by: Cultivation Guide Lighting: 60 to 80% sunlight (some full sun) Potting Medium: Coco chips Temperature: 20C to 38C Humidity: 60 to 80% Watering: Daily Propagation: Seeds Remarks: Though N. truncata is considered a highland or intermediate, there are some low land varieties and even the highland varieties should acclimate to lowland conditions. Slow growth rate. Does not seem to like too wet a medium, the water tray if present should be allowed to go dry a bit before watering. Benefits from a big pot as well. I have never heard of propagation by cutting yet, seems difficult, probably even more difficult than Veitchii. Pitchers seem to grow quite big if it is resting on top of something so that the leaf does not support the pitcher by itself.
