Nepenthes pilosa



Pure or Hybrid: Pure Type: Highland - Grows between 3000 feet & 10,000 feet above sea level. They experience warm days, cool nights and continuous high humidity! Adult Pitcher: Near 6" tall. Lighting: Needs bright light, but not direct sun light. If kept in a greenhouse, it requires 50% shade cloth. Watering: Water from above and allow the excess to drain into a tray. Water like this when water is gone from the tray! Comments: This species is named for the dense indumentum of tawny hairs which cover the leaves, stems, and pitchers. N. pilosa grows epiphytically on moss- laden trees. The lime-green pitchers resemble N. stenophylla in shape but have a distinctive hook-like glandular crest at the base of the lid.
