Description �� Pitcher Plant Care Summary Light: �� Sarracenia (North American): Full sun (6 hours daily). ��️ Nepenthes (Tropical): Bright, indirect light. Water: Use distilled, rain, or reverse osmosis water only. Keep soil consistently moist—never let it dry out. Humidity: Nepenthes love high humidity (60–80%). Sarracenia are more tolerant of lower humidity. Temperature: Tropical (Nepenthes): 70–85°F (21–29°C). Temperate (Sarracenia): Can tolerate cooler temps but need winter dormancy. Soil: Use a mix of sphagnum moss perlite or peat moss sand (no fertilizer, no regular potting soil). Feeding: Don’t fertilize! Feed live or dried insects if indoors and it’s not catching its own prey. Dormancy (for Sarracenia & some Nepenthes hybrids): Needs a winter rest period (about 3 months at 40–50°F / 4–10°C).
