FAQs

Will my plant have pitchers on arrival?
Usually yes, but seasonal transit may cause a few to dry. With stable light/humidity, fresh pitchers regrow quickly.

Can I fertilize?
Avoid chemical fertilizers. Occasional tiny insect or diluted organic foliar outside the pitchers (rarely) is enough.

Is it safe around pets?
Non-toxic to touch, but keep out of reach to protect delicate pitchers.
