14cm Hanging Pot

Plant Highlights: Fascinating pitcher traps • Supplied as a mixed selection of Nepenthes varieties • Ideal for bright, humid rooms • An unusual hanging houseplant with year-round interest

Overview

Nepenthes, commonly known as Tropical Pitcher Plants, are among the most unusual houseplants you can grow. This mixed selection offers a variety of forms and pitcher colours, each producing elegant hanging traps that naturally capture insects as part of the plant's nutrient-gathering strategy.

As this is a mixed product, the exact species, hybrid, pitcher colour, shape and mature size will vary. All selections share an attractive trailing or climbing habit and are best displayed in their hanging pot, where the developing pitchers can cascade naturally.

Plant Details

Indoor Placement

These tropical plants perform best in naturally humid rooms with bright, filtered light and are particularly suited to:

• Bathrooms with natural light
• Conservatories
• Bright living rooms

Avoid direct midday sun, cold draughts and placing the plant close to radiators or heating vents.

Growing Guide

Watering

Keep the growing medium consistently moist using rainwater, distilled water or deionised water where possible. Avoid allowing the compost to dry out completely.

Humidity

High humidity encourages healthy growth and good pitcher production. Bathrooms, conservatories or the use of a humidity tray can help provide suitable conditions.

Feeding

Do not fertilise heavily. Healthy plants will naturally catch small insects indoors or outdoors during warmer weather.

Maintenance

Remove old or dried pitchers as they fade while leaving healthy foliage intact. Repot only when the plant becomes root-bound, using a suitable carnivorous plant compost.

Why We Love It

• Every plant is unique, with its own combination of pitchers and foliage.
• The hanging habit shows off the fascinating traps beautifully.
• A great choice for collectors and anyone looking for an unusual houseplant.
• Provides year-round interest with minimal pruning.

Good to Know

Pitcher plants rely on specialised traps to obtain nutrients and should not be watered with hard tap water where it is unsuitable for carnivorous plants. The individual variety, pitcher colour and shape will vary depending on the plant supplied.
