Your live for the Nepenthes is very inspiring.

I used to grow them indoors in front of a large window and kept them moist (with rain water), not really wet to avoid root rotting. A little spray at times helps a lot.
They thrived so well untill my divorce and moving house.
Last year, after different moves, I bought new ones and are slowly expanding my collection. So happy to take care of them again. They are true personalities!
They are again in front if a large window with sunshine during the morning (if any sun at all these days 😉).

Thank you for sharing the way you care for them, very helpful ❤

Great video! I have been growing Nepenthes for a long time, and can say that you provide very good advice.
FYI, I grow my N. ‘St. Gaya’ in lowland conditions and it’s doing quite well! You know what? I’ll post a video about it soon. You’ll see. 🙂

I had a few carnivorous plants but didn't necessarily want a nepenthes because I figured that it wouldn't like my temperate climate.
Still, I felt sorry for it at a random chain store so I bought it.
I was pleasantly surprised how fast it started growing new leaves and pitchers given some more light than in the store and a bit more water.
Its pitchers are so small that bugs can't really fit in the lid yet but I they do seem to be filling up with digestive juices so I put a fly in there.
Very cool plant.

also i live in australia and i have 1 outdoors in a hanging pot that i have literally never touched. i have it in a self watering pot, all i do is top up the water every couple of days during summer but other than that, in the last 4 years, its grown really well

i actually feed mine. mine is indoors but as i have a large number of reptiles as well, i feed mine 1-3 large crickets every few months.

[Planty-Mandy]

You’ve sold me. 👍🏻 Those red pitchers are just so beautiful and so cool. I’ll be looking out for one to try out.

Great video. I am just starting out on my pitcher journey ~ great starting video.

[vickiswanton]

Really thorough and lots of useful insights. I've been pondering getting either Nepenthes or Sarracenia. I'm leaning towards Nepenthes now.

This video is amazing because it taught me how to take care of a picture plan😊😊😊😊❤❤🎉🎉

Hi Ami, this has been interesting although I doubt I can ever grow Nepenthes. I’m fascinated by the pitchers and their beautiful colours & shapes. Thanks for sharing your knowledge of these plants. Cheers

I'm happy to see this video, new to neps myself. I dont not live in europe. However, we are similar in latitude(I've got a rafflesiana white and a viking x ampullaria black miracle.) Thanks for all you do on this channel! ✨️💞

[jasonclinton]

Thank you for this, I’ve always been a big fan of all carnivorous but Nepenthes have given me trouble!

[michaelkerley]

A very fascinating and informative video. That cutting I have has done absolutely nothing except start to dry out even though it is water with higher humidity. I still cannot figure out where it is supposed to grow root but it is not dead yet. Not sure if this is going to get me into Nepenthes but who knows.😀Thank you for this though as I really enjoyed it.

Flowers won't help with identification, but maybe you mean pitchers? - Nice crash course by the way. If you want to try fancier species try Nepenthes truncata, maxima, and even veitchii

[sunshinecarnivores]

Whenever you prune your Nepenthes you could use them for cuttings. I have a gaya and took four cuttings. Two of the four rooted.

I saw these little cup plants at a nursery with my neighbor. She said she'd get me one if I did research on how to care for them so here I am!
I think they were the second one you showed that you have 💚

[ralphdering]

Hello, I love your videos. Quick question: How do you feed them? Do you drop insects in the Pitcher, or does it attract bugs on its own? Our do you not worry about feeding them?

[janstewart]

As long as conditions aren’t too bad they will acclimate, plants want to live

[amethyst]

Hi! You mention knowing what variety you have...my husband just bought me a pitcher plant, but I can't seem to identify it after much googling! The plant leaves are large and plentiful, but the pitchers are small, maybe around 3-inches, and they are just green...no red. Any ideas?

[markklafter]

Thanks for the video. Very informative. One question about watering: do you just use tap water or do you have to purchase filtered water?
