Quote[/b] ]Just to further comment on this topic, many rare highland species can be grown outdoors in the many microclimates of CA. I too speak from experience, as I was succesfuly growing a N. lowii. But just dont take it from my word, our member (forget his name, but has this website
http://www.venturalink.net/~maxxpaxx/nepenthesathome.htm ) and, in Leo Song's outdoor greenhouse he grows many rare nepenthes , as I'm sure Electric and LACPS members know (and I regret not being able to visit him during my time in CA ). So as you can see, it's not at all impossible, but depending on the specific region your in, sucsess with this species CAN be achieved. By the way, can you check into that buying rare plants from fullerton deal for me
?
