Tropical Pitcher Plants (Nepenthes)

Great plants for novices and collectors alike, Tropical Pitcher Plants are in the genus Nepenthes. Each leaf forms a long tendril on the end, which in turn gives rise to a cylindrical 'pitcher'. Our Hanging Basket sized Nepenthes are wonderful gifts for that plant-lover you know! Outdoor growing in subtropical areas during the warmer months, and excellent windowsill / terrarium plants as well. Most varieties need filtered bright light, medium-high humidity, and pure water. See our Carnivorous Plant Care pages for more detailed information. PLEASE NOTE that a few varieties may have more specific growing conditions, and we do our best to note that in the Item Description for those plants.

New for Fall 2025: For those who are looking for unique Nepenthes species and cultivars that are not available in the mass-market, we are now offering ROOTED CUTTINGS of our individually-selected specialty Nepenthes from our personal collection! These are no more difficult than your average Nepenthes, and we would regard most of these as easy to grow; they were selected from many dozens of genetically-different clones for superior characteristics, ensuring that the plant you receive is exactly as described. No more concern about if the 'Assorted Clones' plant you receive will look like the one in the photo...it is the same plant! These Nepenthes Specialty Rooted Cuttings can be found by clicking on the category link below, or by typing CUTTING into the search box above. PLEASE NOTE that any Nepenthes cuttings available in Unrooted Cutting with Growth - Potted size are exactly as the description states: newer cuttings that have begun to grow from the node, but do not have well-established roots. We have done the hard part by getting these to begin to grow, but these will need a bit more tender loving than the other (more established) sizes.

Photographs of specific items are for informational purposes only, and do not represent the actual plant, or even the size of the plant, that you will receive. While we do our best to oversize the plants we ship whenever possible, here are the minimum sizes for the Nepenthes that we offer; however, only items and sizes that are IN STOCK (no OUT OF STOCK items) will be displayed/available for purchase:
