Plant them in peat moss. Do not use any type of soil that has had fertilizer added to it. Water using only distilled water.

I was shopping one day and I always have to go to the garden department. There it was a Nepenthes-Tropical Pitcher Plant, had to have. Florida and under my live oak tree it has found a home. It love the humidity and bugs, both thing I don't. Rain water is what it likes. That gives me a chance to work on my rain barrel, but that's another picture and story. So it likes bugs, humid rainy weather, with filtered sun from my old oak tree.
