# Moved recently and had to part with my 10+ year-old Nepenthes. Just…

_Posted by Tyler K on 2025-04-20_

Moved recently and had to part with my 10+ year-old Nepenthes. Just picked up these guys on a whim and the only species data lists generic hybrid of Nepenthes. Anyone have some good guidance on differentiating lowland vs highland Nepenthes based just on leaves? I'm imagining it may be far too early to tell, but figured I'd check in just in case.

The only difference I've noticed is highland tend to have thicker leaves. But if it's crosses they could be low high crosses too. Generally if you just give them a kind of in between care they will be fine, and pitcher out so you can see what's what
