Also known as: Kampot Pitcher Plant, Cambodian Nepenthes

An elegant and lesser-known species, Nepenthes kampotiana is a tropical pitcher plant native to the lowland and foothill regions of Cambodia and Thailand. Known for its graceful green to reddish pitchers with smooth curves and subtle markings, this species adds a refined touch to any carnivorous plant collection. Its adaptability and charming growth habit make it ideal for growers seeking something unique yet beginner-friendly.

This listing includes 1 young plant growing in carnivorous plant soil inside a 5 x 7 cm grow cup (condiment-style). It’s already rooted and beginning the early stages of hardening off, making it easier to transition into your terrarium, grow tent, or windowsill setup.


Plant Features:

  • Sleek, delicately shaped pitchers in soft greens, pinks, and reds

  • Naturally found in lowland to intermediate habitats

  • Excellent for tropical terrariums and warm indoor spaces

What is a Tissue Culture?

A tissue culture vessel is a sterile, 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.
  • Monitor Closely: Slowly increase airflow and light exposure.

What is a Soil Cup?

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
