Alata Carnivorous Pitcher Plant

Packed nicely and a mostly very healthy plant. It’s small and young but does have a good amount of pitchers. Some of the pitchers are yellowing at the edge and probably won’t survive, but that’s to be expected when a plant is being shipped across states. So excited to have my first carnivorous plant! Would definitely recommend buying from them and will purchase more myself.

Arrived healthy and shipped quickly. A little small for the price but the quality of the plant is great.

Plant cane in great shape. Disappointed because there were no care instructions included. Description of product indicated that light conditions vary depending on species/variety. No info came with the plant, so hopefully I’ll figure it out. Really cool & unique looking plant.

This looks as expected. I kinda figured shipping would give it a shock so I had had it on a heat pad under a UV light yesterday after receiving it (it was cloudy and rained all day). The sun came out today so I put it in the window for a bit. It's already attracting flies, I just haven't seen any actually enter the pitcher. I've sprayed it wt distilled water and watched a video where a woman said you can put a little bit of distilled water in the pitcher to help it along w/ developing it's own nectar (don't listen to me, though, YouTube it, lol). That picture this app for plants said mine looks sick, but it was just shipped probably across the country if not the world so I'd say that's to be expected seeing as how these can be really finicky plants. I'm trying to be patient but I can't wait to see how it does! I'll try to update. Update (1st pic was taken when it arrived, pics after were taken almost 2 weeks later): I've had this plant for almost 2 weeks now, the one main pitcher that was fully closed when it arrived started to open more after I added a little bit of distilled water to it, it's now caught some fruit flies on its own and we've tossed in a cpl really small spiders (used a flashlight to measure how much fluid was in the pitcher before doing so, bugs are loose floating in the liquid). It's been about one week since the first and over night last night the plant boomed! The little top shoot has opened up to expose a new shoot growing inside, the tiny side pitcher got bigger over night (could barely tell it was grow grow into one when it arrived) and the top shoot with the new one inside has a much more pronounced pitcher at the end! The 2nd larger pitcher is definitely dying off, but that's okay! I have two (technically three) new ones growing! I'm so excited and DEFINITELY happy w/ my purchase! New question: will it survive a winter in Maine? I have a growing lamp & a heat pad... I'm hoping so! In case anyone is curious, I contacted the seller & asked if it was a highland or lowland pitcher, they said it's a lowland😎 Definitely do some research when purchasing, & it will take time & attention, especially if you live in a colder state like mine! I'm really excited, regardless!

Good size with several pitchers Healthy so far

Healthiest plant in my house. I bought my pitcher plant a month ago. And other than my cat eating its pitchers its been super healthy and actually grows as advertised! It would have 2 more pitchers if my cat didn't eat them. A beautiful plant. While writing this I watched it catch a fruit fly.

I was expecting red pitchers. 3 of the 4 pitchers are dead/dying but I figured the plant would have some damage. Only day one so can update along the way. I'm just upset the pitchers are not the color advertised.

Excellent quality and a great price! It arrived quickly and in careful packaging. I was surprised to see three pitcher's on the plant already. Will definitely purchase from this seller again.
