I've transplated a small Nepenthes vieillardii in a peat/sand mix 2/1
and it's thriving ! It's still quite small (traps 7 mm tall 3-4 wide)
but has six-eight traps. I've put it in an incubator, a kindo small
greenhouse.
The mother plant is still in its pot, Ithink it's nealry pure peat, it's
near a west facing windowsill and is thriving as well.
