The Nitty-Gritty (Plant Care):
• Light: Bright, indirect light with a touch of morning sun—think dappled jungle vibes.
• Water: Keep soil moist but never soggy; distilled or rainwater only, please!
• Humidity: High humidity (60%+) keeps those pitchers plump and happy. Consider a terrarium or regular misting.
What It’s Telling You:
• Happy Signs: New pitchers forming, vibrant red coloration, and steady growth.
• Needs TLC: Browning pitchers? It might need more humidity. No new pitchers? Try increasing light or feeding it the occasional insect snack.
Good News for Pet Parents:
Nepenthes are non-toxic, but their sticky pitchers might pique a curious pet’s interest—best kept out of reach.
Extra Love for Detail Lovers:
• The 4” size refers to the nursery pot’s diameter, not the height of the plant.
