I recently bought a Nepenthes Spectabilis from Wisuba in Germany. It got held up in the post for a few days but looked ok when I got it. I potted it up straight away but it started to turn brown within a few days and did not look good. I then put it in a spare fish tank that I had to increase humidity but it just got worse. Did I make the mistake of not putting it in the tank in the first place. It is now deceased.

Hello,

Did you just put it in your conditions without acclimating it? I always bag mine for a few weeks before I put it in my conditions. I think that may have caused what your describing just because of a huge change Conditions. From greenhouse to bag to you, it puts a lot of stress on the plant.

Yes I did and I think you are right.
