Growing Guide

Step 1: Cold stratify seeds in a moist medium inside a refrigerator for 4–6 weeks before sowing.
Step 2: Surface sow seeds on moist carnivorous plant mix without covering them, as light supports germination.
Step 3: Maintain constant moisture using distilled, rain, or reverse osmosis water while keeping the roots cool and well-aerated.
Step 4: Never fertilize the growing medium. Mature plants obtain nutrients naturally by capturing insects with their specialized pitchers.
