Nepenthes Pitcher Plant

* The plant photos shown are our stock images used to represent the general appearance, size, and quality of the plant you’ll receive. Please remember that each plant is unique—natural variations in color, shape, and size are completely normal! LIGHT Bright, indirect light is ideal. Avoid direct midday sun for lowland species—it can burn leaves. Highland species prefer cooler, filtered sunlight. WATER Use distilled, rain, or reverse osmosis water—they are sensitive to minerals in tap water. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Humidity should be 60–90%; misting can help in drier climates. SOIL Use a well-draining, acidic mix. Typical mixes: sphagnum moss + perlite, or sphagnum moss + orchid bark. Avoid regular potting soil—it retains too many nutrients and can harm roots. GROWTH HABIT Vining in nature; pitchers form along the leaf tendrils. Can grow several feet long under ideal conditions. Provide a trellis or hanging basket for support.
