Nepenthes 'Diana' | Pitcher Plant
Position your Nepenthes 'Diane' somewhere where it will receive at least 6 hours of direct sun, ideally a south-facing windowsill or conservatory.
Water frequently with rainwater (as carnivorous plants are sensitive to tap water) making sure the soil stays constantly moist.
Top up the pitchers with a little rain water every couple of weeks to prevent them from drying out. Trim back the pitchers when they have started to shrivel, to allow for fresh new growth.
