The Nepenthes Pitcher Plant, also known as the Monkey Cup Plant, is an exotic, tropical carnivorous plant that develops unique hanging pitcher traps to capture and digest insects. These elegant and colorful pitchers produce sweet nectar that lures in prey, making it a natural pest controller while adding a stunning visual appeal to any indoor or greenhouse setup.

Nepenthes thrive in high-humidity environments and make excellent additions to terrariums, paludariums, and greenhouse setups. Their ability to absorb moisture from the air makes them a fantastic choice for enclosed tropical displays. Pre-potted in a 2" Plastic Pot, this low-maintenance carnivorous plant is a fascinating addition to any plant collection.


Features We Love:

  • Exotic, Hanging Pitchers: Beautiful, vase-shaped traps dangle from tendrils, perfect for unique displays.
  • Natural Pest Control: Attracts and digests insects, reducing flies, gnats, and other pests naturally.
  • Terrarium & Paludarium Friendly: Thrives in humid, enclosed environments with proper air circulation.
  • Perfect for Indoor Growing: Can thrive in warm, humid conditions with bright, indirect light.
  • Diverse and Unique Species: Different varieties produce pitchers in shades of red, green, or even speckled patterns.

Care Guidelines:

  • Light: Bright, indirect light or filtered sunlight; avoid direct afternoon sun.
  • Water: Use only distilled water, rainwater, or reverse osmosis water—never tap water. Keep soil moist but not waterlogged.
  • Temperature: 65° - 85° F (18° - 29° C); prefers warm, humid environments.
  • Humidity: Requires high humidity (60-80%); mist regularly or grow in a terrarium/paludarium/greenhouse setup.
  • Growth Rate: Moderate to fast; pitchers can grow for months before needing replacement.
  • Feeding: If grown indoors, occasionally provide small insects like fruit flies or freeze-dried bugs—never feed meat or human food.

Perfect for Terrariums & Paludariums!

The Nepenthes Pitcher Plant is an excellent choice for rainforest-style terrariums and tropical paludariums. Its ability to absorb moisture from the air and thrive in warm, humid conditions makes it a natural fit for bioactive enclosures. Pair it with mosses, ferns, and creeping vines for a lush, exotic look, and provide perches or hanging spots to allow the pitchers to develop freely.

Best Tank Mates for a Bioactive Setup:
Dart Frogs & Tree Frogs – Safe in a tropical, misted terrarium.
Geckos – Great for humid enclosures like Crested Gecko setups.
Small Invertebrates – Thrives with springtails and isopods in bioactive setups.
Not Recommended for Tanks with Herbivorous Reptiles – May get damaged by heavy foraging animals.


Pro Tips:

  • Watering Method: Keep soil consistently moist but avoid standing water in the pot.
  • Soil Mix: Prefers a well-draining, nutrient-poor mix like sphagnum moss and perlite.
  • Air Circulation: Good airflow prevents mold and helps maintain pitcher production.
  • Encourage Pitchers: Regular misting and stable humidity help maintain healthy pitcher growth.
  • Placement: Ideal for hanging baskets, terrarium perches, or attached to driftwood in a paludarium.

Quality shoe but with a slight squeak.
Size: 10 Wide, Color: Burgundy Polished Full Grain
Nice shoes with the classic Penny Loafer design. Fit was better than another brand I tried. Only reason not 5 starts is disappointment due to a slight squeak at times when walking.

Exact item ordered, quick delivery
Size: 9.5, Color: Black Polished Full Grain
I ordered these black Cole Haan penny loafers for casual wear with jeans, khakies, and even business casual with slacks and a jacket. They've always worked perfectly for these uses. The Cole Haan version is the most versatile and still meets my sophisticated look criteria. I wear a 9 1/2 M with almost all other shoes. I have found Cole Haan to run slightly wider and slightly shorter. This fit will work with thin and no socks and a little loose in width. . I'd likely order a 10 N next time. I tend to forget this but it runs consistent with me for Cole Haan. 5 stars for the shoe and service. My bad on the slightly off fit.

Poor quality control - maybe outlet store leftovers
Size: 11.5, Color: Burgundy Polished Full Grain
The two shoes were not the same size. They were both labeled 11 1/2 but one shoe was larger than the other and the fit was poor. I returned the first pair and ordered a replacement. This time the shoes were close to the same size but too loose and the left one has sewing issues. I've bought Johnston & Murphy for years because of the quality. These were to replace an existing pair of burgundy penny loafers that have finally worn out (even after several heal/sole replacements). That is the expected quality. I suspect Nashville Shoe Warehouse may be handling shoes that didn't measure up for the quality; more like an outlet mall than getting the J&M quality I've come to expect. Update: went to Johnston & Murphy site to buy "direct" from the manufacturer. There were several recent reviews where the shoes were long and didn't fit properly. Genesco - please step up the manufacture / crafting of these classic shoes to the level of quality they used to have.

Really nice shoes
Size: 9, Color: Black Polished Full Grain
My husband enjoys wearing these shoes. Very classy looking. They fit well. They arrived quickly. He liked them so much he ordered another pair in a different color which have worked out just as well.
