I used to see TC plants (Lil Shop of Horrors) that will labled as this. I did not do well with them, and Andreas Wistuba lists the species as difficult on his site.
What's your opinion, Sensai Schloaty?

N. madagascariensis is a true blue lowland plant. Grow it is an intermediate or highland, you might as well throw it in the freezer!

LOL! Well, to answer your question: I don't know yet. The seedlings I have are only a few months old. They are in a lowland environment...It doesn't get below 70 (usually not even below 75) at night, and is usually a goodly amound over 80 durring the day. I could throw them in the ULTRA lowland terrarium, but I want to see if I can get them to continue to grow and acclimate to the lower humidity in the grow room.
