It’s small and young but does have a good amount of pitchers.

Would definitely recommend buying from them and will purchase more myself. Review: Buy it! - Was pleasantly surprised when I received my pitcher plant! She is adorable and has a few pitchers!

Thanks! **Q: Is it really going to be what it show's and says it's going to be?** A: My plant shipped in perfect condition, it was considerably smaller than I expected. (But then I only paid $12.) Hopefully it will grow. It has 5 small "pitchers" on it **Q: Hi. What does the plant come with?** A: The plants may not be what you expect. Check size of container. Small will be VERY SMALL. May not gave pitchers. May have a few leaves. Pics tend to be of mature plants. Only one I ordered was even close to the pic. You probably will be your own pot and special soil (orchid type soil). **Q: Are you supposed to feed the plant?** A: No. But I have done occasionally. I use meal worms or grubs. It is important to see that liquid remains in the pitchers, and never water with tap water. In nature plants would be subject to rainfall. They hate rich soil and fertilizer follow guidelines sent by growers or online. Don’t over feed. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good plant! *by A***X on August 11, 2026* Packed nicely and a mostly very healthy plant. It’s small and young but does have a good amount of pitchers. Some of the pitchers are yellowing at the edge and probably won’t survive, but that’s to be expected when a plant is being shipped across states. So excited to have my first carnivorous plant! Would definitely recommend buying from them and will purchase more myself. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Buy it! *by A***N on September 21, 2026* Was pleasantly surprised when I received my pitcher plant! She is adorable and has a few pitchers! Arrived before delivery date and the package was in great condition. I’m obsessed and would definitely purchase more! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I'm an Amateur w/ Carnivorous Plants, ut This Looks Like What I Expected *by S***. on August 26, 2023* This looks as expected. I kinda figured shipping would give it a shock so I had had it on a heat pad under a UV light yesterday after receiving it (it was cloudy and rained all day). The sun came out today so I put it in the window for a bit. It's already attracting flies, I just haven't seen any actually enter the pitcher. I've sprayed it wt distilled water and watched a video where a woman said you can put a little bit of distilled water in the pitcher to help it along w/ developing it's own nectar (don't listen to me, though, YouTube it, lol). That picture this app for plants said mine looks sick, but it was just shipped probably across the country if not the world so I'd say that's to be expected seeing as how these can be really finicky plants. I'm trying to be patient but I can't wait to see how it does! I'll try to update. Update (1st pic was taken when it arrived, pics after were taken almost 2 weeks later): I've had this plant for almost 2 weeks now, the one main pitcher that was fully closed when it arrived started to open more after I added a little bit of distilled water to it, it's now caught some fruit flies on its own and we've tossed in a cpl really small spiders (used a flashlight to measure how much fluid was in the pitcher before doing so, bugs are loose floating in the liquid). It's been about one week since the first and over night last night the plant boomed! The little top shoot has opened up to expose a new shoot growing inside, the tiny side pitcher got bigger over night (could barely tell it was grow grow into one when it arrived) and the top shoot with the new one inside has a much more pronounced pitcher at the end! The 2nd larger pitcher is definitely dying off, but that's okay! I have two (technically three) new ones growing! I'm so excited and DEFINITELY happy w/ my purchase! New question: will it survive a winter in Maine? I have a growing lamp & a heat pad... I'm hoping so! In case anyone is curious, I contacted the seller & asked if it was a highland or lowland pitcher, they said it's a lowland😎 Definitely do some research when purchasing, & it will take time & attention, especially if you live in a colder state like mine! I'm really excited, regardless! ## Frequently Bought Together - Alata Pitcher Plant - Nepenthes Live Carnivorous Plant - Wellspring Gardens Starter Plant - Easy to Grow Starter Bulbs Great for Nature Lovers & Gardeners - Outdoor & Indoor Planting Aquatic Plant - Perfect Plants Carnivorous Plant Soil | 4 Qts.
