🌿 Monkey Cup Pitcher Plants Are Here! 🌿

Have you ever seen a plant that catches its own bugs? These incredible Monkey Cup Pitcher Plants (Nepenthes) do exactly that!

Their unique pitcher-shaped leaves fill with digestive fluid that attracts and traps insects. In nature, this helps them get nutrients from bugs when growing in nutrient-poor environments. Not only are they fascinating to watch, but they’re also a great conversation piece for any plant collection.

🪴 Care Tips:
• Bright, indirect light
• Keep soil consistently moist, but not soggy
• Use distilled, rain, or purified water when possible
• Love higher humidity
• Never fertilize the pitchers directly
• Avoid regular potting soil—these plants prefer nutrient-poor media

The pitchers can range from green to red depending on the variety and lighting, and each new pitcher feels like a little work of art.

If you’re looking for a plant that’s a little unusual, a little wild, and guaranteed to grab attention, the Monkey Cup Pitcher Plant is for you!

Stop by and check them out before they’re gone—they’re one of the coolest plants in the shop right now! 🐒🪴✨

Air plant restock! 🤗

From tiny to statement-sized, we’ve got several varieties of air plants back in stock!

Not all air plants have the exact same care requirements—some do best with a weekly misting or soak, while others prefer to keep water collected in their center. A little variation in care, but all of them bring the same cool factor and unique look that makes air plants so fun to grow.

And don’t forget to grab a hanging holder handcrafted by Silva & Ore to show off your new addition! Their beautiful creations pair perfectly with air plants and make an eye-catching display. 🌿✨

Stop by and find your favorite!

A little Epipremnum pinnatum brag because these beauties deserve it.

To me, they are the perfect middle ground between a pothos and a monstera. They have the easygoing, fast-growing personality of a pothos, but as they mature they start showing off those dramatic splits and fenestrations that everyone loves in monsteras.

Juvenile leaves start smooth and simple, then one day they decide to level up and suddenly you’ve got jungle vibes climbing up a moss pole. Some varieties stay rich glossy green, while others throw stunning variegation into the mix like living artwork.

They’re tropical, forgiving, and honestly kind of addictive once you start growing them. If you love pothos but want something a little more uncommon and dramatic, Epipremnum pinnatum is that plant. 🌿
