Tanqueray Posted October 1, 2019 Report Share Posted October 1, 2019 Hi all, I’m in the process of building a lowland Nepenthes greenhouse, to grow some of my favourites (ampullaria, bicalcarata and albomarginata amongst others). It’ll be shaded, as most of the lowland neps don’t appreciate full sun. Having said that, I could only shade part of it. My question is, what other CP’s (or plants in general) will go well in here? I’m thinking maybe some tropical sundews, but that’s all that come to mind? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nepenthesman Posted October 1, 2019 Report Share Posted October 1, 2019 Throw some spathaglottis orchids in there as i have seen them grow side by side in the wild with Ampullaria in direct sunlight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanqueray Posted October 1, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2019 Thanks, will have to see if I can find some. Keep the suggestions coming! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanqueray Posted October 1, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2019 Nepenthesman, have you observed any Drosera species living near lowland Nepenthes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drosera burmannii and d. spathulata grow in the same areas as many lowland nepenthes. I’d add bamboo orchids (Arundina) to the suggestion list, they look pretty and often grow together with nepenthes gracilis and nepenthes mirabilis along roadsides in Malaysia.
