Why You’ll Love It ✔️
✔️ Eye-catching pitchers in shades of green, red, and purple with flared peristomes
✔️ Naturally traps and digests small insects – no sprays needed
✔️ A compact hybrid that performs well indoors in bright, humid spots
Care Tips
🌞 Light: Bright indirect light is ideal; can tolerate some soft morning sun
💧 Water: Keep soil moist at all times with low-mineral or rainwater; never let it dry out
💦 Humidity: Requires high humidity – a humidifier is essential for healthy pitchers
🌡 Temperature: Thrives between 20–28°C; avoid cold drafts and dry heat
🌱 Soil: Grows best in a carnivorous mix or a blend of sphagnum moss and perlite
🪴 Support: None needed – compact, upright grower
🌿 Fertiliser: Controlled-release fertiliser is not recommended; avoid standard feeding – rely on insects or specialist carnivorous plant nutrition if needed
🚫 Toxicity: We believe it’s safe, but best to keep away from pets and small children
Exotic, efficient, and totally out of the ordinary – this one’s a conversation starter.

We use a direct API link to Australia Post for our rates, so the rates you see at the checkout are fed directly from Australia Post. The rates are not estimates, they are the actual Australia Post rates, we do not add any extra to the price.
The rates are based on the actual weight of the order [or the cubic weight if its higher] and your delivery address.
We don't make any profit from shipping rates, we only charge you what we're charged.

Magical Maxis
Our Magical Maxis range are grown in larger pots 175mm and for too big to fit in our regular packaging.
We've offered these larger plants with complimentary shipping as they need to ship one plants per box and cannot be packed together with any of our other plants due to their size.
The weight of these plants will not affect the capped 5kg shipping price.
