Remove the nursery pot for watering and seasonal care; do not plant directly into these decorative planters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCare guide\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight:\u003c\/strong\u003e Provide strong light, ideally a sunny outdoor position. Introduce direct sun gradually after shipping. A dim indoor window is not a suitable long-term growing spot; indoor growing requires sufficiently strong lighting and seasonal care.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater:\u003c\/strong\u003e Use rainwater, distilled water, or low-mineral reverse-osmosis water. Keep the growing medium consistently moist during active growth; a shallow water tray can help maintain moisture. Do not treat this plant like a succulent or allow its root medium to dry out. Reduce standing water during winter dormancy while keeping the medium moist.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowing medium:\u003c\/strong\u003e Use an acidic, low-nutrient medium formulated for Sarracenia, such as unfertilized sphagnum peat with suitable perlite or silica sand. Avoid ordinary potting soil, compost, fertilizer-enriched mixes, and our houseplant or succulent soil blends. Use a plastic or glazed container with drainage rather than unglazed terracotta.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFeeding:\u003c\/strong\u003e Outdoor plants generally catch their own insects. Do not add ordinary liquid fertilizer, slow-release fertilizer, or plant food to the soil or water tray. Do not feed meat or force-feed pitchers. Our general houseplant and succulent fertilizer is not recommended for this plant.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePitcher care:\u003c\/strong\u003e Do not fill every pitcher on a schedule. Pitcher-fluid requirements differ among Sarracenia species; follow species-specific guidance once its exact identity is confirmed. Avoid damaging or repeatedly handling the pitchers.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeasonal care:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sarracenia needs a winter rest rather than consistently warm tropical conditions year-round. Cold tolerance varies by species and hybrid, so do not assume a particular frost rating. Protect containers from severe freezing appropriate to your local conditions while maintaining a suitable cool seasonal rest.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaintenance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Remove fully dried pitchers with clean scissors while leaving healthy growth intact. Provide airflow and avoid enclosing the plant in a sealed terrarium.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePet safety:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sarracenia is generally considered non-toxic to pets.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CTS Air Plants","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52812843024615,"sku":null,"price":59.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0782\/3120\/8167\/files\/image_f35afb84-64b7-438d-8ef3-ee41f4fa12a8.png?v=1791839034","url":"https:\/\/ctsairplants.com\/products\/jumbo-pitcher-plant-6-inch-pot","provider":"CTS Air Plants","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
