This historic hybrid is a cross between \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNepenthes khasiana\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e and \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNepenthes veitchii\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, combining the vigorous growth of one parent with the spectacular, heavily striped pitchers of the other. Like all Nepenthes, it is a tropical carnivorous vine that climbs through the forests of Southeast Asia, using tendrils at the end of each leaf to produce insect-trapping pitchers. Mature plants can produce impressively large traps that make this hybrid a centerpiece in any carnivorous plant collection.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlace Nepenthes × ‘Dyeriana’ within 1–3 feet of an east-facing or south-facing window where it receives bright, indirect light throughout the day. A few hours of gentle morning sun are beneficial, but prolonged intense afternoon sun can scorch the foliage and pitchers. Under grow lights, use a full-spectrum bulb in the 5000K–6500K range. High-output lights should be positioned 10–14 inches above the foliage, while medium-strength lights work best at 12–16 inches. If the plant begins producing leaves without pitchers, it is often asking for more light, higher humidity, or both.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWater when the growing media is beginning to dry, never on a schedule. Use only distilled, reverse osmosis, or rainwater, as dissolved minerals found in tap water can damage the roots over time. Nepenthes × ‘Dyeriana’ should not be planted in traditional potting soil. Instead, grow it in a nutrient-poor, airy mix such as long-fiber sphagnum moss with coarse perlite, or a blend of sphagnum moss, orchid bark, and perlite. Keep the media evenly moist but never waterlogged, and do not allow the pot to sit in standing water. Warm temperatures, good airflow, and moderate to high humidity will encourage the production of large, colorful pitchers. Mature pitchers do not require regular feeding, but they will naturally capture insects if given the opportunity.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Rooted Plant Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43122264801378,"sku":null,"price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0572\/1269\/8722\/files\/35475B83-7C5D-4604-9922-8A6C66EAFF53.jpg?v=1784159141","url":"https:\/\/therootedplantshop.com\/products\/nepenthes-pitcher-plant-dyeriana-4","provider":"The Rooted Plant Shop ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
