GASP! Ross is moving in?! With his PINK plants?! 😱 😂 Congratulations!! You two are adorable! Have fun!

[@beckyfrichek8190]

I’ve done a lot of work combing through advice about nepenthes, and was able to bring mine back from the brink of death. Here’s what I found and what has turned it around for me- 1) High light. Many growers say it’s light, not humidity, that is crucial for developing new pitchers. I keep mine hanging right in a south window. I’m in Minnesota near Canada, so the kind of light I get in my south windows may be comparable to what you get. 2) Distilled water. No need to fill the pitchers. I was taught to do that years ago when I was working in a plant shop, but I never do it now. It is not necessary. If there are no fungus gnats or other little bugs around for your pitchers to catch, I have heard consistently that you can feed fish food to carnivorous plants-freeze dried meal worms, betta pellets, etc. Or dip a toothpick in a dilute fertilizer with nitrogen and swirl it in the pitcher. 3) I keep mine in sphagnum moss in a clear glass container. When the moss dries out (not to the crispy stage, but so that it’s not damp to the touch), I fully moisten it all again with distilled water. The glass isn’t necessary, but it makes it faster and easier to visually check the moisture level. And obviously slows down water loss. I also just like how glass looks hanging in a window. As long as it’s getting light and isn’t drying out for too long, the ambient humidity doesn’t seem to matter that much. I went from a tiny top cutting with no pitchers to a plant that has more than tripled in size and is constantly putting out new pitchers.

[@maxnewby8365]

I would love a care vid for your frydek, I’ve got one and would love to know tips!

[@larab5214]

Pitcher plant: Easy peasy, so do not worry. I water mine with tap water, but my location has pretty good water. (And mine is city water) and I use our tap for everything (I don't know how many plants I have ...maybe 200? About 50 are orchids, and everyone gets our tap water). If you let it dry or keep it in dry air, the pitchers will stop forming and you'll just have leaves. (This was learned when my 16 year old son took over it's care because he wanted the plant and we moved it into his room. He forgets to water it. But the plant has been with him 2 years and it has survived his extreme neglect. My son is at school now, so its back under my care...) We put just a tiny bit of distilled water in the pitchers if they dry out- otherwise we leave them. There is a KZbin channel called Brad's Greenhouse. He can give you the best advise! Be prepared. These vines get HUGE.

[@hollysmith8522]

Please don’t fertilise the pitcher plant! Due to the evolution of the plant, it grows in areas with limited nutrients in the soil, so their roots can’t take up the nutrients from the fertiliser and it damages them (it’s the same reason that the plant is sensitive to tap water). This is also why they have their pitchers as they can absorb the nutrients they would get from fertiliser. Although I’ve not tried it myself, maybe if you want to fertilise it, you could add the fertiliser to the pitchers - but do this at ur own risk 😂

[@maxhoff54]

You can put slow release fertilizer pellets in the pitchers to give them nutrients! Works perfect for mine

[@lovesyorkies3395]

Osmocote does real well for pitcher plants. One little pellet will do….I have 7 different nepenthes plants. I only give them distilled water or zero water (reverse osmosis) You don’t have to fill the pitchers with water, they create their own. It’s a digestive enzyme they produce to break down their catch. Keep the soil moist, don’t let it dry out, your Nepenthes will love you for it! I have mine in carnivorous plant soil. You got a beautiful plant! Since you’re getting into carnivorous plants…get a Pinguicula. They are so awesome and they bloom! You’ll be surprised at how low maintenance they are. I have a Pinguicula obsession! 😁

[@jhowardsupporter]

@@lovesyorkies3395 We have Osmocote here in Australia and it's great for feeding carnivorous plants. All you need is 1 bag of their premium potting mix then you just open it near your plants and allow all the fungus gnats to emerge. Pinguicula can get overfed using this method and I feel the growth will then not be as nice and compact.

[@lovesyorkies3395]

@@jhowardsupporter I have plenty of houseplants where my pinguiculas will get fed naturally. That was the reason I started purchasing pings 4 years ago. Every once in a while one of my pinguiculas will get a mosquito. I’ve used osmocote pellets on all my Nepenthes plants (one in a couple of pitchers) and I’ve had great success.

[@vicky3792]

I have a Philodendron BillieXAta. Mine’s leaves are a bit darker but it’s living outside for the summer in hot and humid Texas and they may be the reason. Great plant. I’ve heard they grow a little slower than Billies.

[@battlestarsonatica]

I've had good results with soil propagation for the Peperomia Hope. Pop individual leaves stem-side down into damp soil and place the pot inside a clear zip-lock bag (sealed or mostly sealed) on a sunny window ledge. I lost a few leaves to rot, but the vast majority rooted in about 6-8 weeks. Some of the cuttings have started putting out new stems and leaves now. 🌱

[@Eliseadriennee]

My fuzzy petiole is one of my favorite plants. She’s so big and huge. I don’t even have her on a moss pole or anything to support her and she’s getting bigger and bigger! The only thing that I had a problem with in the beginning was petiole rot… it would put leafs out but would never unfurl and would rot inside it 😢 but she’s doing a lot better now! I keep her in 50% or higher humidity and low/high light in California. She’s doing great. Love her 🖤

[@saundralacey53]

I have several pitcher plants, they flourish here in FL! Humidity, warmth, indirect sun and distilled/rainwater and they will grow like crazy for you. If you stop getting pitchers, they need more humidity. You shouldn't need to add liquid unless they dry out, then you add a bit of distilled water. No fertilizer! I have a rather large nepenthes alata I keep on my lanai and he mows through mosquitoes, flies and gnats like a champ!

[@PlantyofLife]

Hello I’m here in Florida too… question do you know if this plant will go dormant ? I heard it’s important for this plant to go dormant 30-45 days but I wasn’t sure if it gets cold enough here in Florida for it to go dormant. I am new plant parent and keep mine outside.

[@saundralacey53]

@@PlantyofLife Very good question! Nepenthes and some droseras don't go dormant. Just make sure you bring the plant inside if the temps are going to get below 50° as the plant will die. I'm in SWFL so rarely do we see those temps.

[@Tina-wi7we]

That variegated fridek is amazing. So so beautiful. 💚🧚‍♂️💚🧚‍♂️💚

[@louisedreisig6166]

These are so beautiful! I'm really falling in love with the Peperomia Hope too lately.

[@ashe7578]

Theory here! While I do live in the US, Fall and Winter are my major growing seasons for my plants and I believe it’s due to the fact that the sun is lower in the sky rather than directly above like it is during the summer. While there are fewer hours of light, the sun reaches all the way to the back wall of my plant room and my plants get more sun that way! Fewer hours of it, but when they get it, it’s much brighter! Also! The camposportoanum is an amazing plant! It grows like an absolute WEED and is such a rewarding plant!

[@kimsplants]

I love your videos, Claire! I wanted to share my experience with P. Fuzzy Petiole. I have a few of them for a couple of years now. Mine do great outside the cabinet, but keep an eye out for new growth, in my experience they sometimes have trouble unfurling when the humidity is lower. And I’ve never put them on mosspoles (I do have many other philodendrons on poles), this one doesn’t seem to need it as much. A bamboo stake works perfect in my experience. Thank you for making these video’s! I’ve never commented before but I have been watching for about 2 years now 🙈

[@None2Lose]

For the pitcher plant, yes, rainwater or distilled water is best. I've used filtered water and mine is doing just fine with plenty of new growth. I would recommend cutting off the brown parts on the pitchers until fully brown and then cut the whole connector leading up to the leaf. The pitchers will only serve purpose as long as they can hold their sap. Also, once they have taken as much of nutrients as they could, this is when they'll start turning brown.

[@ronjakh]

When my partner and I moved in together I got rid of a lot of plants. Some sacrifice is involved when making space for a partner and they deserve to be made space for 🙂 in the end it was great because I now have a smaller collection of plants and I love them all as opposed to having a lot of filler plants and plants that I just like

[@MeganRunning]

I am definitely not an expert but I did a lot of research when I first got my pitched plant. And mine has been doing well. I learned no fertilizer, and no water in the pitchers. Water dilutes the digestive liquid they produce. And high humidity and water when top soil is dry. Oh and, if you repot, they like soil with low nutrients. Like just coco coir. Good luck! They are so fun!

[@rosewagner4018]

I know I don’t usually do this, but I had great success propagating my hope. I place cuttings in those peat moss pods. Really soaked. I placed them in a southeast window. I can’t tell you how long they took to root. But, eventually, I was able to take the peat moss off and plant in the mother plant. This was successful for me

[@worldgonemad1977]

My Euphorbias have exploded this year too. I chopped and propped in order to make them branch and now I’ve got 8 of them. I rub off any branches that are sprouting where I don’t want them when they are tiny, in order to keep them ‘balanced’ I’m going to have to get heavier pots too

[@ameliakent3611]

I have found the easiest way to propagate peperomia hope is through leaf cuttings. I just pulled the leaf off the stem and stuck it down in damp soil in a Tupperware and put it somewhere warm and bright. This way does take a long time (several months to get new growth) but I've made 4 new plants this way 😊

[@OrchidboyTroy]

Thank you sooo much for sharing!!! Your videos are awesome! I am going to recommend my favorite KZbinr for Nepenthes, Windowsill Nepenthes! Remy has been successfully growing for 20+ years the Nepenthes plant. He answered so many of questions when I got my first. I have a few more now. So that should tell you the success haha I find them to resemble orchids more than other CPs. Hopes this helps! Enjoy your new baby 🌺😁🪴

[@ekuecken9307]

Try propagating the pepperomia hope by leaves. I’ve grown mine entirely by leaf propagations directly into soil, placed in a plastic bag. Honestly it took over a year to start growing, but it’s been rewarding now that it’s a full trailing plant.

[@jeaniejean8200]

Another great vid, thanks Claire. Love your channel. I have just recently (end of July) propagated Peperomia Hope by leaf cuttings. Plop them in Pon and VOILA! Worked like a charm.

[@jacobdadow8720]

I’m sure you are getting multiple comments from people offering their best advice. So to put my two cents in as somebody who has a nepenthes for about three years now, they don’t produce pitchers even when water them with just tapwater. It will always kill the pictures off. I have to only water with distilled water, or keep it out on my patio, where it gets rain water. Otherwise, they seem very very happy and easy to grow. Oh, and I never filled the pitchers.

[@justjennblauvelt207]

Yes, please post a care video for variegated frydek! 💚 🤍

[@sydneyf9530]

I really want pitcher plants (carnivorous plants) I’ve just gotten into house plants and was so excited when I saw it in the thumbnail!

[@pontusandsarah2781]

Hi Claire, as far as the pitcher plant goes (im also a fairly new pitcher plant owner) ive heard the liquid in the pitcher is actually different than water. It's more slimy and is better suited for trapping bugs so i would avoid filling the pitchers with anything and just let the plant do its thing. Also fertilizer will damage and could even kill your plant! There are carnivorous plant fertilizers I believe that you can feed your plants, i dont know if theyre at the commercial level or people are just using diy fertilizers from pet stores such as fish food or dried meal worms or something like that? So im not sure about that but definitely avoid normal plant fertilizers. Thank you for your wonderful videos and for all the work you put into them. Much love from the US

[@tarantellalarouge7632]

I think you are right, no fertilizer, only rain water and a lot of humidity. Carnivorous plants evolve this way because they lived in poor environment, so it is not recommended to add too much stuff .... Don't fill the pitcher, they are natural little stomachs and are fabricating their own liquid ...

[@torquess454]

That Billie is definitely a different one! I’ve never seen such red on one!! Mines got brown petioles as is usual.. I’d do just a stake for that fuzzy petiole myself, looks like it may not need the extra a moss poke provides.

[@carolstuff]

Nice faves!

Hi all yea really success this year a lot of growing also as well brought them in doors usually have them in the porch so they can get much like as they could possibly can using grow lights in the house stack them all up on a plant ladder happy days thank Claire for your plant tips and time 🙏🏼💯❤️

[@FreshwaterIchthyology]

Nepenthes are chilled to keep. Rain water is great if possible or I would almost be inclined to slightly remineralise RO water. I used to have a nearly 6ft individual. I've never fertilised them, I did used to water with aquarium water when I used RO to a TDS of about 100ppm in them. The liquid is digestive fluids, definitely no need to fill them up, they will do it themselves. Even if you accidently drain one. They don't need to catch flies for their entire life either.

[@OMM-kl1zu]

Hi Claire, your Nepenthes - Alata is a real beauty. A good size with many large cups. I have a very small one, grown in pure sphagnum moss, live sphagnum on top. I keep it moist at all times. I use rainwater and never fertilize. In summer I put it outside, to catch insects. It does sun stress well. I have had mine for 2 years and have heard they can last for up to 50 years. I will repot this year, which makes me nervous.🪴

[@johnchlimon-cp4yl]

Thanks for your suggestions, it’s practical, I never have seen like this plant before, I will search for it? Thanks 🙏

[@emoo2342]

I saw young pitcher plants at my local commissary last Sunday and it was so bizarre to me-we were picking up groceries. Heading toward the produce, when I glanced over and saw a few very good looking nepenthes. People buy the plants so quickly that the store doesn’t need to water them. As a result, all of the plants look good. The plants that I’ve gotten there are doing very well. Heheh, anyway, yours looks so good!😄

I have what I was told is a Billie Black. I was told it is a hybrid. I’ve had it for years! It grow very fast and it does get bigger but not as big as the Billie and the nodes aren’t as close together. Cutting are slow to root but once they do they grow fast! Enjoy!

Hello! I have a pitcher plant as well! You don’t fertilize them! I also keep mine in a pot without drainage because it loves to stay wet like most carnivores.

[@LouDu000]

Hi from Germany, you are right! You should use distilled water and no fertiliser, as the plants are found in nature in nutrient-poor soils (bogs). So it is simply their adaptation. Love your videos :)

[@Femme_Marie]

Claire, I love your channel and love love LOVE that philo billie/ atabapoense hybrid! I definitely think it’s both - it’s certainly got the best features from both! BTW - this may not apply since I’m in the US, but may I ask where you got the plastic cachepot it’s living in? I love the color and cute semi hydro cover pots can be hard to find!

[@DieDieEla]

Hello Claire, I would be interested to know whether you take a dry phase into account in your semi-hydroponics and whether you determine the PH value and microsim value when you fertilize.

[@mableleaf2445]

I would be very interested in this too! 😊

[@sandy_carpetsthesecond5013]

If you fertilise your pitcher plant, use a very very very diluted amount and place it in the pitchers. They don't really need it though. They can go *months* without any new nutrition, insects included in that. So don't be worried about fertiliser, just make sure it has the water conditions right and it'll be fine.

[@smwboxer]

[@Heartbrew]

Absolutely fill the pitcher (with distilled water) but only to about a quarter of their height. The word you were looking for was ‘enzyme’ - the pitchers need a littler liquid to kickstart the enzyme production process, since rainwater would do that in the wild. If you have them in an environment where they can’t catch bugs (natural fertilizer) then you can fertilize lightly to supplement. The best ways we’ve found is 1/4tsp MAXSEA per gallon of water, sprayed directly into the pitchers (never into the soil). Osmocote pellets also work and are much easier to use in small pitchers. We also find their happiest environment is 75/75 (75F and 75% humidity), with a 15-20 degree drop at night (so 55-75 degrees would be their ideal daily range). Although the humidity can be lower/higher and they can adapt to that, the temperature is really the most important part. We love carnivorous plants in our house and are so excited you’re getting into them too!! ❤

[@pjuk]

I've got the same two euphorbia as you, maybe a little smaller, and same happened with me. Did nothing really all summer then in last month or so both grown 3 or 4cm.

[@thelmaowens6063]

The Skeleton key is hard to get keys but I have it in my hottest cabinet near the light. It definitely needs a pole to get keys and it is a heavy feeder in my experience.

[@muchcats5245]

If you don't want to buy distilled water for your pitcher plant, you can collect a little rain water to use only for watering it. A lot of people in the US say to use rain water for carnivorous plants.

[@jessicam8479]

Thank you for the fascinating and informative video! Don't fill the pitchers because it will dilute the nectar and the digestive liquids that the plant naturally produces to attract and kill its prey. If the pitchers are empty it is best to leave them alone, increase the humidity, make sure the temperature is within the tolerable range for this plant, and make sure that the plant is getting enough sunlight. An empty pitcher can start producing liquids again if the conditions for it are right.

[@plantytotalkabout]

I have a pitcher plant that’s about 3 years old now and grown great for me! It does stay in my large humidity dome for higher humidity but I do actually fertilize mine and it’s constantly putting out pitchers for me and catches its share of ants aswell! I live in ga in the country so bugs are a constant “thing” lol! I do also use tap water aswell but my bottom base of the pot is in perlite because it serves as a filter for the water for it! My sister works for a plant florist shop so they use a similar method to their watering aswell! Hopefully this helps and just trust your gut with it! It should do fine for you! There’s so many myths with carnivorous plants but honestly they are actually chill plants as long as humidity and water stays on schedule!

[@carolynfinn-fleming8032]

Great video, beautiful plants. The pitcher plant likes to be root bound. That is defintely not a billietiae, it looks like an atabapoense. I had no luck with the fuzzy petiole, I tried twice may they RIP😢

[@sunshinecarnivores1919]

Could potentially be a N. ventrata. On a side note, carnivorous plants are very easy to grow. That one you got there is a very easy to grow and great for beginners. Needs distilled, rain, or RO water don't give it tap water because it can kill it. I now have two and yes don't fertilize it, it will catch its own food. The Nepenthes is from the tropics unlike the venus flytrap which are from the Carolinas here in America.

[@_hazplants]

Your pitcher plant is most likely a Nepenthes alata × ventricosa hybrid. It is much more tolerant than its parents, but it is still a carnivorous plant and should therefore be fed as minimally as possible. A nutrient deficiency can be remedied, but excess means weak feeders will have their roots damaged by a build-up of salinity. If the condition persists for a long time, it can be the end of them, because they survive for a very long time with completely broken roots, even still growing. The total salinity that builds up on the medium consists of all the ions added, i.e. tap water + fertiliser. In most regions, this value in tap water already exceeds the tolerance of the plant, although you can sometimes get lucky with hybrids, and they live quite long with tap water. But definitely they can never use up even the few nutrients of tap water, so the increase in salinity is much faster than with ordinary plants. Using distilled water or RO water allows the plant to be supplied with nutrients to the small extent that it does not give up its normal behaviour of pitcher formation (in winter, however, they usually always stop pitcher formation due to lack of light). If you still want to supply the plant with tap water, then only use the ebb, flood and flush system. Flood the entire medium, let the excess salts dissolve for a few hours and then rinse with plenty of tap water. It will be happy at this point if the excess water can drain away completely. To remove even more water, you can place the pot on a towel. You do not have to pay attention to humidity with it. These hybrids will tolerate almost anything, but of course they like higher humidity. Please do not spray them. You don't have to refill the pitchers if they leaked for any reason. They are not very long-lived anyway. If it gets too big for you at some point, it is very tolerant of pruning. The cuttings root well, even large cuttings I usually just add to the mother plant so that it has pitchers again in the lower area and becomes bushier. For the last two years, however, my Nephentes hybrids have simply been living in distilled water, without soil. They also cope wonderfully with this.

[@JuanellHopper]

I had a pitcher plant a long time ago but it was a different one. I have heard that you don't fertilize them and don't have them in soil that has any nutrients in it. I would like to have one of those. I like weird plants. What kind of light do you keep it in? By the way you can get fish water purifier to dissolve chemicals out of your water.

It's almost certainly nepenthes _x ventrata_ rather than _alata_ (ventrata being a hybrid of ventricosa and alata, one being a highland species and the other being a lowland, the cross has better temperature tolerance than either of the parents & consequently a popular choice to sell commercially). I use water from my dehumidifier which is essentially distilled for all intents & purposes. They will vine, they like being moist but not wet, they are epiphytes in the wild. They are high light (but indirect) & really want high humidity. Sarracenia (marsh pitchers) are not at all closely related & care for the two types of pitchers is very different, some people have trouble because they apply sarracenia care to nepethes. In the wild presumably the pitchers would occasionally collect rainwater, you don't _have_ to top up the pitchers, but it probably collects bugs better if there's a little liquid in there. The digestive enzymes in the liquid are very tolerant to dilution. I do fertilise mine on occasion just by pouring fertilised water (orchid fertiliser so comparatively weak) into the pitcher. The medium does not get any. Should you ever have it bloom, it's useful to know that nepenthes are dioecious, i.e. you've either got a male or a female plant. Check out Red Leaf Exotics on youtube for care & propagation tips (they can be propagated through cuttings).

Your billiatiea looks like an Atabapoense, don't it? 🤔

Lmao I never noticed before but the nepenthes DOES look like ballsacks! 😂

[@locochavez95]

in summer outside, this plant will have a whale of time eating flies and drinking rain water

You absolutely should not fertilize carnivorous plants
