6" Pitcher Plant (Nepenthes Alata)

Pitcher plants are carnivorous plants that eat insects.

CARE:

Light: Bright, indirect light.

Water: Make sure the soil is damp at all times. If you live in an area where you have tap water high in minerals, water your plants with distilled water or rainwater.

Fertilizer: Pitcher plants get nutrients and nitrogen from insects and generally don’t require fertilizer, but if you notice that your plant has trouble developing additional pitchers, pour a few drops of diluted liquid fertilizer into the plant’s pitchers. You can also use a high-nitrogen pitcher plant fertilizer.

Maintenance: Indoor pitcher plant care generally requires warm temperatures between 65 and 80 F. (18-27 C.) Give indoor pitcher plants bugs about two to three times a year.

Please know that no two plants are alike and the one you receive may not look exactly as shown.
