Best pitcher?

I'm thinking of getting my first pitcher plant soon, so far I've only had sundews and VFTs, but my terrarium isn't the largest so I'm wondering what small pitcher plants are easier and better for newbies?
 
Hi!

I think N. ampullaria would be a good choice (if you got one, please send me a cutting as wel

Greets and happy growing,

S. psittacina and its hybrids would work well also.
 
young S. Rubra's, and some younger heliamphora's will work too.
 
I thought that Heliamphoras are experience grower plants

but........maeby I was wrong...
 
n.truncata can get big, but it grows so slowly you'll have a new tank by then

I got a S. rubra, but only because that was all they had at the nursery.

Thanks for the help anyway! I hope it grows healthily.
