The pitchers (both lowers and uppers) get quite large, and can exceed a foot in length. The plant can get rather large as well. It is a very showy plant. I dont know how well it would grow as a houseplant, but it does seem to need an abundance of humidity to pitcher well. |

A friend of mine grows this plant. It's beautiful.
It has very large pitchers.
He grows it in a terrarium.
He just gave me a rooted cutting of this plant a few weeks ago.
I will be growing it as a windowsill plant. I do not think it will have any problems with settling in since I grow all my neps as windowsill plants.

It depends on your house. I know some who grow it very successfully in windowsills.
Edit: I now grow this as a house plant and have not had any problems with it so far. It had its growth tip broken off during shipping, but it seems to be recovering well, so I think my house has conditions perfectly fine for it.

A couple pics of mine when I had it outside while I was cleaning out my LowLand Chamber on a warm, early October day:   Joel from nepenthesaroundthehouse grows it like a houseplant, I live in NY where it gets kinda cold so I grow mine in a simple chamber and it does quite well. My favorite Nep for sure... |
