Nepenthes vieillardii

This lowland pitcher plant produces slender, elongated pitchers in soft green to yellow-green tones, sometimes blushed with red in bright light. The pitchers have a narrow, lightly flared opening with a subtle peristome and a neat, modest lid. Leathery, lance-shaped leaves and fine tendrils give the plant an elegant, understated appearance.

Country of Origin: Southeast Asia (notably Borneo, Sumatra, Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines, Papua New Guinea)

Temperature: 24–32 °C

Care: Moderate (beginner-intermediate)

Light: Bright indirect light to partial sun

Humidity: Very high (70–90%)

A tissue culture vessel is a clear gel, transparent container (5 cm diameter x 7 cm height) that holds multiple young plants (typically 3 or more) grown under laboratory conditions.

These vessels provide a carefully controlled environment, keeping the plants healthy and contaminant-free until they're ready to transition to standard growing conditions.

Quick Hardening Steps:

1. Open Lid Gradually: Slightly open the cup to slowly reduce humidity.
2. Maintain Humidity: Gradually decrease humidity over 2–4 weeks.
3. Indirect Light: Start with gentle, indirect lighting.
4. Moist Soil: Keep media damp, never wet.
5. Monitor Closely: Slowly increase airflow and light exposure.

Each transparent Transition Cup (5 cm diameter × 7 cm height) contains a juvenile carnivorous plant that has moved beyond sterile tissue culture and into a structured transition medium.

Inside, you’ll find a young carnivorous plant securely planted in a semi-solid blend designed to support root development while easing the shift from gel to soil.

This carefully balanced environment maintains optimal humidity and airflow, helping reduce transplant shock and supporting the plant during this critical transition stage.

Suitable for both novice growers and experienced collectors, Transition Cups provide a reliable, low-stress way to guide delicate carnivorous plants toward successful soil establishment.

Each transparent carnivorous cup (5 cm diameter x 7 cm height) contains a juvenile carnivorous plant freshly transitioned from tissue culture.

Inside, you'll find a young carnivorous plant planted securely in special growing media soil that replicates their natural habitat.

This carefully balanced environment maintains optimal humidity, aiding the delicate plants during their crucial hardening-off stage.

Perfect for both novice growers and experienced collectors, these cups provide a simple and effective way to cultivate and enjoy captivating insect-eating plants.
