Will this be restocked?
- At Cultivo, every release is carefully selected and grown with purpose. We don’t mass restock - most plants are small-batch, seasonal or one-of-a-kind “exact plant pictured” pieces. Once they’re sold, they’re truly gone. That’s why you won’t see a typical “email me when available” option on these listings
- Some seasonal items or small-batch variants may return in the future. If that happens, we’ll update the original listing with new photos and details
- 🔔 For updates on new and rare arrivals, keep an eye on our New Arrivals Collection or join our VIP list above.

Seller description
- Nepenthes truncata is an iconic species of the genus! The oversized pitchers, variability and robustness make it a must-have in the collection
- There are few larger pitchers in the genus than those of Nepenthes truncata, sizes over 50 cm are not uncommon. It is hard to imagine the size of such a pitcher. Red, green, orange and yellow pitchers are all present in Nepenthes truncata, as well as the broad peristome which can be striped, unstriped, red, green, orange or yellow
- The advantage of N. truncata is that it grows out of most setups quickly, but with enough light it can also be cultivated on a windowsill or a skylight. Alternatively it can be grown with artificial light in the room. However, the amount of light has to be high enough, the plant also tolerates direct sun for a few hours. Due to the thick leaves, it hardly dries out as long as the substrate is sufficiently moist.
