Characteristics

They require abundant but filtered light; cultivation under artificial light or in bright greenhouses is ideal. Perennial plants that maintain growth all year round, with a slight slowdown during the warmer months. Native to the tepuis of Venezuela, Guyana, and Brazil, cool and humid mountain environments at altitudes of over 1,000 meters.

The tube-shaped pitchers collect rainwater and attract insects, which slip inside and are digested.
