Got one of these off eBay early this year, can confirm they are beautiful and healthy plants. Jumped on the offer, x Briggsiana wasn't always this affordable!

I've been using MaxSea on my Nepenthes for 6 years or so with good results. While I began with a quarter strength application, I now use 1/2 tbsp per gallon (half the recommended for outdoor potted plants) every other week. I fill a 5 gallon bucket with water and appropriate amount of fert and...
