Pitcher Plant is one of the most unusual plants, which is commonly known as Nepenthes or Monkey Cup. Its pitcher-shaped foliage is formed to attract the insects as it smells like nectar. This unusual tropical plant is often chosen by plant lovers due to unique characteristics of Pitcher Plant. It can decorate the house by its spectacular view. It grows best in bright spots with no direct sunlight. Water the plant with approximately 1 glass of room temperature water when the top few inches of soil seem to be slightly dry to the touch (about once a week). Don’t let the plant sit in soggy soil. In hot season the soil should not be fully dry as well. Pitcher Plant is shipped in 6” hanging basket. The plant prefers high level of air humidity. It doesn’t stand drafts, which have negative effect on the plant. Feed the plant with insects which are put into the different pitchers monthly. Pitcher Plant gets all the necessary nutrients from them. Don’t require extra feeding. The height of the plant shipped varies from 14” to 16” which is measured from the bottom of the pot to the very top of the plant. The width of the plant is between 10” to 12”. The repotting of the plant is made in the early spring when the previous pot is too small for the root system. The pot should be just a little bigger than the previous one. Your plant may look little different from the advertised; however, be assured, we handpicked our plants to meet your expectations.
