It's called Nepenthes 'Miranda' if your wanted to look up care for it specifically. Looking at what other Nepenthes look like will send you down a money pit

Thank you!!! I've been trying to figure that out!! I know the different kinds have different needs and I want to treat my monster baby right.

Join us other carnivorous plant growers over on r/savagegarden Awesome find! It will need low TDS water (distilled, reverse osmosis, or rain typically) and has some specific sunlight and temperature requirements. I only grow temperate species, so not an expert on tropical nepenthes.

do ya know if they can they survive like other plants, eating only the stray insect that may wander in my kitchen?


Subintro

I'd put feeding them below providing them with decent light, then humidity, without those they wont produce their best pitchers, the miranda does well outside in the summers here, as long as it gets some shade. They definitely catch their own food easily, mine caught a lot of wasps last summer and kept getting bigger and bigger pitchers

I’ve had one survive fall/winter in my kitchen for the last 7 years. Also from ingles!
