Description
Size and packing method: Small plants are about 1 inch in diameter and large ones are about 2 inches in diameter. Bare root plants will be carefully wrapped in a damp paper towel. Potted specimens will be packed securely to prevent the plant from becoming dislodged during shipping.
Growing requirements
Light: Full sun or grow light equivalent
Mature size: 2-4 in. diameter
Soil: Carnivorous Plant Soil Mix, Pure peat, peat-sand mix, or long-fiber sphagnum
Feeding: Feed bugs, dried bloodworms, fish food, or diluted foliar fertilizer such as Maxsea every 2-3 weeks
Humidity: 35-75%
Water: Keep wet at all times during the active growing season, provide water that is low in salts and minerals such as rain or distilled water
Temperature: 45-90°F with hotter temperatures preferred, this species prefers warm roots so a heat mat may also be beneficial
Dormancy: Dormant during the dry season. Trigger dormancy by reducing the length of the photoperiod for about 3 months. Reduce watering during dormancy and only feed if there is dew on the traps.
Planting and adjustment instructions will be included with your shipment.

Having been a repeat customer of Curious Plant for years, I have only been completely satisfied with every CP that I have received from them. The plants always arrive in great shape and more times than not, are larger than I had expected. Curious Plant gets my highest rating for service and value and have plants that I am unable to find anywhere else. Highly recommend you get your CPs from them!
