Nepenthes sanguinea is an excellent plant for the first-time grower. It can remain compact for many years, which makes it a great candidate for any sunny windowsill. Large, established plants can be quite impressive, with older plants growing traps 9 inches tall! With good lighting, its firm waxy leaves will develop an attractive reddish-bronze hue.

Snaguinea
Very good growing way bigger pitchers

Excellent Condition
The plant arrived in great condition, and took off growing new pitchers almost immediately. I bought this one for work, and was so happy I bought two more for my house and one for my parents.

Fascinating
I've enjoyed watching new 'pots' develop from the leaves.

As expected, EXCELLENT!!!
My Nepenthes sanguinea arrived in excellent condition, and even came with three pitchers! Although it is dwelling indoors for now, it has already feasted on a bunch of ants, and another two pitchers have formed. Extremely happy with my purchase, again!

Lovely little plant
Shipped safely and arrived in great condition even though it was midwinter. As a bonus, there were already a couple small pitchers on the vine. I thought I'd have to wait for them to grow, but they were already grown and healthy!
