For me it was the exact opposite. N.khasiana grew and flowered
best under full sunlight. Considering I lived in Brazil, this meant lots
of sunlight year round. When I moved my collection from home to a
greenhouse at my university (where there was less direct sunlight than
at home), the N.khasiana didn't thrive as well. Funny how plants react
differently to different growing conditions, huh?
