The Nepenthes Pitcher Plant, also known as the Monkey Cup Plant, is an exotic, tropical carnivorous plant that develops unique hanging pitcher traps to capture and digest insects. These elegant and colorful pitchers produce sweet nectar that lures in prey, making it a natural pest controller while adding a stunning visual appeal to any indoor or greenhouse setup.

Nepenthes thrive in high-humidity environments and make excellent additions to terrariums, paludariums, and greenhouse setups. Their ability to absorb moisture from the air makes them a fantastic choice for enclosed tropical displays. Pre-potted in a 2" Plastic Pot, this low-maintenance carnivorous plant is a fascinating addition to any plant collection.


Features We Love:

  • Exotic, Hanging Pitchers: Beautiful, vase-shaped traps dangle from tendrils, perfect for unique displays.
  • Natural Pest Control: Attracts and digests insects, reducing flies, gnats, and other pests naturally.
  • Terrarium & Paludarium Friendly: Thrives in humid, enclosed environments with proper air circulation.
  • Perfect for Indoor Growing: Can thrive in warm, humid conditions with bright, indirect light.
  • Diverse and Unique Species: Different varieties produce pitchers in shades of red, green, or even speckled patterns.

Care Guidelines:

  • Light: Bright, indirect light or filtered sunlight; avoid direct afternoon sun.
  • Water: Use only distilled water, rainwater, or reverse osmosis water—never tap water. Keep soil moist but not waterlogged.
  • Temperature: 65° - 85° F (18° - 29° C); prefers warm, humid environments.
  • Humidity: Requires high humidity (60-80%); mist regularly or grow in a terrarium/paludarium/greenhouse setup.
  • Growth Rate: Moderate to fast; pitchers can grow for months before needing replacement.
  • Feeding: If grown indoors, occasionally provide small insects like fruit flies or freeze-dried bugs—never feed meat or human food.

Perfect for Terrariums & Paludariums!

The Nepenthes Pitcher Plant is an excellent choice for rainforest-style terrariums and tropical paludariums. Its ability to absorb moisture from the air and thrive in warm, humid conditions makes it a natural fit for bioactive enclosures. Pair it with mosses, ferns, and creeping vines for a lush, exotic look, and provide perches or hanging spots to allow the pitchers to develop freely.

Best Tank Mates for a Bioactive Setup:
Dart Frogs & Tree Frogs – Safe in a tropical, misted terrarium.
Geckos – Great for humid enclosures like Crested Gecko setups.
Small Invertebrates – Thrives with springtails and isopods in bioactive setups.
Not Recommended for Tanks with Herbivorous Reptiles – May get damaged by heavy foraging animals.


Pro Tips:

  • Watering Method: Keep soil consistently moist but avoid standing water in the pot.
  • Soil Mix: Prefers a well-draining, nutrient-poor mix like sphagnum moss and perlite.
  • Air Circulation: Good airflow prevents mold and helps maintain pitcher production.
  • Encourage Pitchers: Regular misting and stable humidity help maintain healthy pitcher growth.
  • Placement: Ideal for hanging baskets, terrarium perches, or attached to driftwood in a paludarium.

FANTASTIC Faux fur blanket! Sooooo perfect!
I purchased this for my Husband to use as he sits in his Lazy Boy recliner chair. He LOVES it! It’s a faux fur that looks and feels REAL! Our dogs love it too lol. It’s so pretty. But the quality is what impressed us. It’s so washable without tearing up. It’s SOFT beyond your imagination! Warmth is really perfect! Not too hot or cold. It’s not light, nor heavy, really a perfect weight. For the price its value is the best you’ll find. I’ve already purchased more as gifts and for myself. All the colors are pretty and realistic. This is a purchase you’ll be proud of. Enjoy.

I want every color!
To me they are perfect quality blankets. I've bought a bunch of brands here this year. (Blanket addict). But these are my absolute favorites. The green moss color is beautiful in person. It's not a mucky cooked spinach color. They're soft, thick, warm and so snuggly. I'm a hot sleeper and these don't make me wake up all night. The "bubbles" actually are bubbly, not flat like most of the bubble blankets claim to be. The back side is just as soft, a thick nice fur. I don't do reviews often but I love this blanket so much. The pic I uploaded is from pillows I bought to go with the blanket but you can at least see the blanket color. I bought white and oak too. Not to plug another brand but the pillow is Vctops fur pillow cover I bought on Amazon too that's in the pic.

Lovely throw
Color: Oak, Size: Throw(50"x60")
I am very pleased with this blanket throw. The Oak color is a beautiful neutral. It is extremely soft with a medium weight. It washes and dries with ease (I used the sheets/towels/bulky items setting on my washer in cold water and dried on delicate). Honestly, this is a great dupe for Lola blanket.
