Success with N. Eymae in Lowland Cond?

[abelchuazw]

Hey guys,

Just need some advice on the temperatures for N. Eymae, I'm currently in process of ex vitro for my Nepenthes Eymae, it's still a pretty small TC plant. Anyone had any success growing it under lowland conditions?


I can provide for both conditions with my terrarium, but of course, would love to do it on my NE facing windowsill with temps of 26 - 30C day and 24 - 26C Nights. Humidity levels lowest would be around 69% and night humidity levels of around 85 - 90%

Thanks!

You're probably going to need a bit more of a temperature change than that, and eymae will probably need at least intermediate conditions so 75 F (24 C) at night could a bit warm in the long run. Even lowlanders need a decent temp drop; if you can get it another 3-4 C lower at night you'd probably be fine.

Emyae has an intermediate distribution in nature. I agree with hcarlton that you are going need at least a drop to 70-65 for the long term health of your plant. Are those year round temperatures for you? If you have seasons your plant could probably do just fine.
