Question
rafflesiana x mirabili
Allexperts,
I got this plant rafflesiana x mirabilis from you guys. Since, I have never repotted a lowland nepenthes before, I was wondering what type of soil mix is recommended? Is there any necessary things I have to make i put into the soil? Can I just stay with the nepenthes mix? I will very interested to hear about the tips you can give me about the repotting mixture, if you can. I have sent you a photo of the plant as well. As always thank you for your time.
Sincerely,
Weylin
AnswerWe used a mix of equal parts dried sphagnum moss, orchid bark and perlite. That mix is fine for the vast majority of lowland and highland Nepenthes. Any of the recipes on our website in the care sheet section will also do the job. There isn't any specific recipe you need to you use as long as the recipe allows for sufficient drainage and is low in nutrients.
