Description

You will receive a live, Nepenthes ventricosa in a 1" plug of moss, an appropriate sized pot for growing it, and enough high quality New Zealand sphagnum moss to plant it. These plants must be kept damp at all times, but should not be soaking wet at any time. It is also important that the plant be watered with distilled water, reverse osmosis water, or rain water because regular tap water can be deadly to carnivorous plants. Nepenthes ventricosa is a tropical pitcher plant from the Philippines. It produces tubby red/orange pitchers at the end of each leaf. These pitchers are filled with digestive fluid for trapped insects. These plants can be grown on a sunny windowsill, in artificially-lit terrariums, or in mild outdoor climates if exposed to filtered sunlight. They should be protected from extremely hot and extremely cold weather if grown outdoors.
