Nepenthes ALATA. Live Tropical Pitcher Plant

My plant arrived secured in a very nicely improvised flower pot/solo cup capsule. Be careful removing the tape. They use really good tape that is hard to remove; it's a good thing. My plant arrived Healthy and Beautiful.

Wow! Words can’t explain how beautiful and stunning this plant is. It arrived way earlier than expected and it made an incredible anniversary present. I am so impressive we are buying more! You definitely won’t be disappointed. The pitchers are bigger than I was expecting.

The plant was wonderful when I received it. It had magnificent pitchers on it. After about a few days it developed red spots on several of the leaves and the pitchers started to turn brown and die. I contacted the supplier and was told it probably got cold in the mail. It is starting to bounce back now with tiny pitchers developing. There are still some red spots and brown dead areas on some of the leaves. But there are new leaves growing now also. I am hoping it does well. I love it.

This is NOT a Nepenthes Alata this is a Ventrata, one of its parent plants is an Alata but this is an Alata x Ventricosa =Ventrata

I have bought many carnivorous plants from just about anywhere and so far these guys are the best. They package the hell out of it lol but its done so good that everytime it arrives perfect. They used a large pastic cup and even though it was held up and then shipped out for local delivery for the 2nd time, it still arrived as pictured.

We've tried to keep it moist, with regular watering (two to three times a week) and spraying (daily). We've moved it into a large pot of peat moss. But our dry climate or something just made all the pitchers blacken and wither.. The plant itself looks Ok though..

Update: It has wintered wonderfully in my indoor greenhouse. As seen in the last 2 photos, it hasn’t stopped producing pitchers or stopped growing in general! I had some bugs from my other plants that were wintering inside, but never had an issue with them because they just kept working! Still loving them! Original Review: I can’t express how gorgeous my pitchers are. The plant came small and only took a couple months to reach this size. I waited to post a review to be able to see how it went. I used just straight peat moss in a coconut liner hanging basket in my greenhouse. I use a rv water filter from the house to keep the water clean. I have a misting system going twice a day. I have that and a couple Venus fly traps as my only pest control and haven’t had any problems with excess mosquitoes or other insects in my greenhouse. Functional and beautiful

Arrived so well packaged nothing short of crushing the entire box itself will damage the plant. Nep itself it's alive and looks really healthy with 3 pitchers and one on the way.
