If repotting your plants, use Sphagnum Moss. No regular soil is suitable.

A tropical pitcher plant native to parts of South East Asia, India, Madagascar, and Australia. Most are vines, but some remain compact in growth habit. The name "Monkey Cups" comes from monkeys occasionally drinking the fluid in the pitchers. The pitcher is actually a swelling of the mid-vein in the leaf. Ensure that the sphagnum moss is always kept moist. The pitchers should always have some water in them, so it is good to get some water in them while you're showering your plant, just make sure they are no more than 50% full of water. Failure to produce pitchers is an indication that the plant isn't receiving adequate light, water, or humidity. It requires a cold winter dormancy between November and February. Temperatures in their natural habitats regularly dip below freezing over winter (0°C / 32°F). During such temperatures, they may go into dormancy and revive and provide new growth in the Spring. No need to fertilize these beauties as they produce plenty on their own from trapping bugs and insects. 

These plants thrive in humid environments and should only be watered with distilled or rainwater. They are sensitive to minerals, fluoride, and chlorine, which can cause yellowing or browning of their leaves. Additionally, avoid using regular soil, as it's too rich in nutrients for them. Instead, we offer Sphagnum Moss, which is the ideal medium for their growth. They prefer bright light. Fluorescent or other cool-temperature grow lights can be used for the indoor cultivation of smaller species. A terrarium of smaller carnivorous plants under such lights can make a great starter set-up.

Whether kept indoors or outdoors, there’s no need for regular feeding. They will naturally catch gnats or flies from the air, which provides them with the nourishment they need to stay healthy and vibrant.
