Nepenthes 'Briggsiana' is the name of the hybrid for Nepenthes Lowii x Ventricosa 'Red'. This plant is one of the few Lowii hybrids that can handle lowland and intermediate conditions meaning you get to enjoy the unique beauty of the Lowii shaped pitchers (to allow Tree Shrews and similar mammals to use the pitcher as a bathroom) as the plant matures.
This plant comes pre-potted in spahgnum moss in a 3.5" planter.

Care Instructions
Light
Part sun or shaded sun (pool screens are great). Avoid afternoon sunlight to prevent sunburn. Can also sit on a sunny windowsill inside.
Water
- Water as planting material starts to dry out on top. Nepenthes should be kept moist, but not wet.
- Only use distilled, rain, or reverse osmosis water. Do not use purified water. Any water with > 50 PPM TDS will kill your plant over time. Filtered water is often not filtered enough for these plants.
Temperature
Our plants are generally lowland or intermediate. We recommend a 5-10F drop in temperatures minimum nightly. Plants should not be left outside in temperatures under 55F. Humidity should be 50%+.
Fertilizer
Fertilize in the evening every two weeks with a ¼ teaspoon of MaxSea 16-16-16 mixed with 1-gallon of water. Spray the leaves. You can also put Osmocote pellets (14-14-14) inside of a pitcher after it opens to provide food if kept indoors. If outdoors, they will get food naturally, though spraying with fertilizer will often help.
The plant was very well packaged and exactly as advertised. It was in better condition than I was expecting for sure. This was the first plant I bought from this seller and will be considering buying additional plants once I’m more confident in carnivorous plants
I received a fairly large sized plant with a leaf span of about 10-11"
Very good looking and healthy. It was packaged well and there was no damage to the plant or pitchers.
This is one of the larger plants I have bought! The pitchers are large and the plants is in excellent health. As always each plant is fabulous!
The plant was in great health
