Question
Hey guys ,i got a Nepenthes aristolochioides. Someone told me that they need a cool night from 50-55 degree F. But someone else said that they also grow well from 55-62 degree F. What is correct?
(Sorry for that bad english ,I'm from germany.)

Greetings Dominc

Answer
Hi Dominic,

Nepenthes aristolochioides is a highland species, so a night cool-down definitely helps them.  Day temperatures should be in the 70's F, however.  In our greenhouse we've gotten the nicest looking plants with warm (not hot) days and cool nights.  Our summer nights here in Oregon often go into the upper 50's with days in the 80's.

Good Growing!
