Hey all:
I just...gulp...purchased my first Nepenthes, and since I wanted something relatively easy and compact to start off with, I went for a N. ventricosa. It is a tiny little cutting with a couple of even tinier pitchers, but it looks beautiful to me!
My question is, where do you all think I should place this plant for optimum light? I can place it on an very lightly shaded eastern windowsill, an unobstructed western windowsill or an unobstructed southern windowsill. The plant will not be in a terrarium although I try to maintain the humidity at a fairly steady 50-60% in the winter (with the help of two humidifiers) and I do not air condition in the summer.
Thanks for you help,
Corey
