Has anyone tried using leafmold instead of sphagnum or peat moss in their
Nepenthe potting mix? I've used sphagnum with a combination of
perlite/orchid bark/volcanic rock, and was wondering about the use of an
acidic leafmold after seeing some photos of their natural
environments. Likewise, has anyone tried using limestone gravel in their
Nepenthe mix?
Good Growing,
