Care Guide for Tropical Pitcher Plants

• Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. Some species can tolerate partial sunlight, but avoid harsh, direct afternoon sun.
• Watering: Keep soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Use distilled, rain, or purified water—avoid tap water, as it can contain minerals harmful to the plant.
• Humidity & Temperature: Thrives in 60–85% humidity and temperatures between 20–31°C. High humidity encourages pitcher formation.
• Soil: Use a well-draining, nutrient-poor mix, such as sphagnum moss with perlite or orchid bark. Avoid traditional potting soil.
• Feeding: While these plants can catch their own insects, occasional feeding with small bugs (like fruit flies or crickets) can help boost growth. Avoid fertilizers.
• Potting & Growth: Best grown in hanging baskets or pots with good drainage. Some species are climbing/vining and may require support as they mature.
