What botanist would not be filled with admiration if, after a long journey, he should find this wonderful plant. In his astonishment past ills would be forgotten when beholding this admirable work of the Creator! [translated from Latin by Harry Veitch] [24]

Lowland species of Nepenthes need stereotypical ‘tropical’ environments to thrive in. They experience 25c – 35c daytime temperatures and nighttime lows of no less than 21c.They also grow in near-constant humidity levels of 80% or higher. Plant the cutting in sphagnum moss by placing the base of the cutting with the node directly in the potting medium. Water the cutting and then place the pot in an area with high humidity and access to bright light. Frazier, C.K. (2000).

Plants can be propagated by seed, cuttings, and tissue culture. Seeds are usually sown on damp chopped Sphagnum moss, or on sterile plant tissue culture media once they have been properly disinfected. The seeds generally become nonviable soon after harvesting, so seed are not usually the preferred method of propagation. A 1:1 mixture of orchid medium with moss or perlite has been used for germination and culture. Seed may take two months to germinate, and two years or more to yield mature plants. Cuttings may be rooted in damp Sphagnum moss in a plastic bag or tank with high humidity and moderate light. They can begin to root in one to two months and start to form pitchers in about six months. Tissue culture is now used commercially and helps reduce collection of wild plants, as well as making many rare species available to hobbyists at reasonable prices. Nepenthes species are considered threatened or endangered plants and all of them are listed in CITES Appendix II, with the exception of N. rajah and N. khasiana which are listed in CITES Appendix I. [59] The CITES listing means all international trade (including in parts and derivatives) is controlled by the CITES permitting system, with wild You can also trim off dead leaves, disease-infected leaves, and old leaves as well. Doing this will greatly benefit the plant. PropagationNepenthes was formally published as a generic name in 1753 in Linnaeus's famous Species Plantarum, which established botanical nomenclature as it exists today. Nepenthes distillatoria is the type species of the genus. [25] Nepenthes from Carolus Linnaeus's Species Plantarum of 1753 The Asian Pitcher Plant, or Tropical Pitcher Plant or Nepenthes, can be found in its natural habitat in the tropical regions of Asia – mainly Thailand, Malaysia, Philippines, Indonesia, Singapore and New Guinea. The name Monkey Cups comes from monkeys occasionally drinking the fluid found in the pitchers. Bauer, U.; Bohn, H.F.; Federle, W. (2008). "Harmless nectar source or deadly trap: Nepenthes pitchers are activated by rain, condensation and nectar". Proceedings of the Royal Society B. 275 (1632): 259–265. doi: 10.1098/rspb.2007.1402. PMC 2593725. PMID 18048280. Short for 'Me-Ok-Yay!', Meoky cups are customisable, BPA-free, reusable, and eco-friendly drinkware. Robustly manufactured they say they can keep drinks cool for up to 6 hours (and the travel mug versions can keep liquids cool for up to 36 hours apparently). As the name suggests, lowland varieties of Nepenthes grow in ‘low-lying’ terrain throughout their native habitat. This habitat ranges from sea-level to around 3,000ft in altitude up the side of tropical mountains.As explained,daylength, sunlight and rainfall remains very constant throughout the year. Due to their limited range at lower altitudes, the temperature in their habitat does not change significantly, including fluctuations between day and night time temperatures.

Nepenthes species usually produce two types of pitchers, known as leaf dimorphism. Appearing near the base of the plant are the large, lower traps, which typically sit on the ground. The upper or aerial pitchers are usually smaller, coloured differently, and possess different features from the lower pitchers. These upper pitchers usually form as the plant reaches maturity and the plant grows taller. To keep the plant steady, the upper pitchers often form a loop in the tendril, allowing it to wrap around nearby support. In some species (e.g. N.rafflesiana), different prey may be attracted by the two types of pitchers. This varied morphology also often makes identification of species difficult.

Feeding: There is no need to feed your Nepenthes at all as it has adapted to survive on a minuscule amount of nutrients gained from the few insects it digests each month. If you do decide to feed it, use recently killed insects that will fit comfortably in the pitchers. Avoid putting too many inside as it will cause the pitchers to rot. Don’t feed it during winter. You may prefer to spray your plant with a weak solution of fertilizer. Use a high quality orchid or bromeliad fertilizer. Use ¼ - ½ teaspoon of fertilizer to 3.5 litres of water. Mist your plant with this mixture weekly during spring and summer but only once a month or not at all in winter. With both fertilizing and feeding, remember that none is better than too much!In the short video ( you can watch here), which has been viewed 793.6k times, Meggy G is in her kitchen with what looks like a rainbow travel mug version of the Meoky cup and a bottle of wine. This urn is hollow, as I have just said, usually full of soft, clear water, and then closed. It opens during the day and more than half the liquid disappears, but this loss is repaired during the night, and the next day the urn is full again and closed by its lid. This is its sustenance, and enough for more than one day because it is always about half-full at the approach of night.
