Hello,
I would think the Seramis is very similar to a product that has been
discussed recently on the list with regards to cultivation of N.
merrilliana. Aliflor is basically expanded clay pellets. I am having good
results with Aliflor as the prime ingredient for N. merrilliana and I do use
it with other Nepenthes. It is available through many Orchid nurseries. A
good source in large quantities is OFE in Miami Fl, phone 305-253-7080.
