It is a relictual species, often considered the most primitive member of the genus, inhabiting \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ehigh altitude peaty seeps\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e and stream margins at approximately 500 to 900 m. It thrives in cool, feynbos-type environments with constant water seepage and high light.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCare for this carnivorous plant is simple. I recommend using a mix of 2:1 perlite to long fiber sphagnum moss. I do not keep this plant sitting in a tray of water; but rather I water it more like a Nepenthes, about every 2-3 days. I use water under 50 PPM TDS. I use a natural photoperiod, ranging from 8-16 hours a day, depending on the time of year. The plants get about 250 PPFD, but you can use a natural photoperiod or anywhere from 10-16 hours. I normally spray the leaves with 1,000-2,500PPM MaxSea fertilizer weekly, or as often as I remember. I grow it in cool intermediate conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs always, plants can look different with different amounts of light. The plants you receive may be a slightly different color than what is shown, either more colorful or more green depending on a variety of factors.
