anyone familiar with these beasties? It's the carnivorous pitcher plant with
the pitchers at the base as well as on the ends of the leaves. I can't tell
whether mine is dying or just closing down for the winter. And can't work
out whether it wants more heat or less


Presumably you've googled for it and found pages like
http://hubben.crosswinds.net/cps/Nep...mpullaria.html which
suggest it wants to be at 18-35C and 80% humidity with partial shade?
It grows on the forest floor in the wild.
