Care Guide – How to Keep Your Nepenthes Happy

Nepenthes Dubia x Deaniana is an intermediate plant and relatively easy to care for once established. Follow these basic guidelines to ensure your plant thrives:

• Light: Place in bright, indirect sunlight to encourage vibrant growth and optimal pitcher development, also perfect for a terrarium or carnivorous plant paludarium
• Water: Use distilled or rainwater to keep the soil moist. Avoid tap water, as it may contain minerals harmful to carnivorous plants
• Humidity: A humid environment (30%+ humidity) will help your Nepenthes thrive. Consider using a humidity tray or growing it in a terrarium for best results
• Feeding: Nepenthes are insectivorous and there is no need to feed them
• Winter Care: These plants do not require a dormancy period, but they do prefer slightly reduced watering during the colder months. If grown outdoors, protect your plant from frost

• Because Cultivo is a boutique-style store, most of our collector’s plants are one-of-a-kind “exact plant pictured” or limited seasonal releases. That means once they’re sold, they’re gone - so standard restock notifications aren’t practical here
• A few seasonal plants or variants of small-batch releases may return in the future. If that happens, we’ll update the original listing with new photos and details
