    edwardsiana as a houseplant?
    Does anyone have any Nepenthes argentii x [(hamata x villosa) x (edwardsiana x hamata)]? I'm willing to trade for a mature flowering-size Drosera capensis.

    I imagine you'd have problems with dubia as a houseplant because it needs those severe night time drops (mine had probs inside), but the rest of those I'd grow in my house if I had them and nice windows. N.thorelliXcampanulata made a nice window plant too, as did chanianaXveitchii and Exotic Lady (and ditto on the Red Leopard!)

    You have one growing well as a houseplant? Do you have a standard temperature household? Do you do anything special for humidity? It wouldn't surprise me if the plant wasn't THAT picky it's just that, for me, that would be a lot of money to risk letting it acclimate to my house... Tell me more.
