Very nice plants. Good growing. Do you grow outdoors? If so do you bring in in winter? Just curious as we are near and have similar growing conditions. I have to move my neps indoors to tanks during winter. Greenhouse will be ready soon.
Anyway I to buy some Neps at times from Lowes/ HD and I tell people that and they can't believe me. I guess it must just be the southern stores that get them in. I currently have a N. rafflesiana I rescued from HD this past summer.
I tried unfiltered apple juice, but it didn't work as well. lol But no I don't keep them in standing water, but I have it in the cup all the time. I fill the cup up to the top then let it evaporate till the water is about 1/2 inch below the pot. It seems to like a little more water than my other neps.
macamus3, I don't keep any tropicals outside. I am too afraid its too hot for them in the summer. (its about 90-100*F in the summer) I took them outside for the lighting in the pics. I keep them in a tank I set on its side. the top is open at all times. I use two 23 watt CFLs.
