What's wrong with this nepenthes

[merihdedeler]

I just bought this nepenthes miranda 10 days ago. because of all pitchers died I catch this plant so cheap. but I donnow so much thinks about it. I appreciate if you advise me..

it's pretty common for neps to lose their pitchers when being moved to a drastically different environment. Though I don't have any particular experience with N. Miranda, I would just wait for the plant to acclimate to your conditions

PS what is your humidity and light like?

[merihdedeler]

well, because of it's in my living room humidity is about 50-55 sometimes 60. but I usually spread water on plant two times a day. and the light is, when it's sunny, whole day, but when it's cloudy, it sees full daylight. and my house 20-26 C always.

looking online, ***it seems*** Miranda is a hybrid of a few highland species. If that info is correct, then your humidity should be fine, but not sure about the lighting. They're pretty hardy plants in my experience. So if it doesn't start to pitcher in a few months and/or you notice stretching, I would just move it to a brighter location.

It looks really dehydrated too. When I neglect my Sanguinea and forget to water it has droopy leaves, and then I water and the leaves jump right back up and the brown patches could (and I think are) sunburns.

Nepenthes grow pitchers only in high humidity environment at the very bright light.
Try to stay near him ultrasonic humidifier, and move the mist flow to the nepenthes. And provide much of sun light during all day.

do you have recent pictures of the plant? I would say there is nothing wrong with the plant. infact it looks as if there r new leaves on the plant. If its the red spots on the plant you r worried about, dont they will turn red when they get more light. Also dont worry aobut the pitchers right now you will see plenty of them forming once the days get longer, and more light is coming through the window.

looks to me like you have a very healthy plant.

oh and dont worry about the humidity. Nepenthes Miranda is a very hardy plant and high humidity has nothing to do with this plant producing pitchers. infact it is all about the amount of light it gets, and watering of course. They soil should be moist, but not saturated at all times.
