This Australian Pitcher Plant is a wonderfully eerie addition to any plant collection! With its red and green pitchers sitting low among a few round, glossy leaves, it looks like a collection of quirky little creatures. The pitchers themselves resemble wide-open mouths, their edges lined with tooth-like ribs, while the lids are beautifully patterned with deep maroon veins. Cephalotus follicularis produces two distinct types of leaves: round, fuzzy, non-carnivorous leaves in spring, and striking, carnivorous pitcher leaves in summer, which inflate into their iconic trap shape. Native to a small coastal region in Western Australia, this rare plant is highly sought after by collectors for its distinctive appearance and intricate details. It makes a captivating addition to a bright, south-facing windowsill or terrarium. Awarded the RHS Award of Garden Merit. Height and spread: 10 cm (4 in). This Australian Pitcher Plant is a delightfully spooky specimen! Carnivorous plants require plenty of light. Grow in bright light, with around 6 hours of full sun per day. They require a frost-free position such as a cool conservatory, porch, or bright room indoors with a temperature of 15°C(60F) – 32°C (90F). Well-draining, nutrient-poor acidic soil with good aeration is essential. Cephalotus follicularis requires less water than other carnivorous plants and should not be left to stand in water. Keep the soil moist but not wet and be careful not to overwater. Always use rainwater or distilled water, as carnivorous plants are particularly sensitive to the chemicals contained in tap water. Carnivorous plants do not need feeding - they will catch all of the food that they need themselves.

Live Plants

Dobies strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3.

Non Standard Deliveries

Unfortunately like many companies in our industry we are currently only able to supply orders to UK based customers, excluding those in Northern Ireland. We are committed to finding a way that we can resume or normal services again as soon as possible. Please accept our apologies for any inconvience caused.

Prices include VAT where applicable.

We reserve the right to contact you and advise an additional charge where necessary and are happy to quote for carriage of specific products to more remote areas. Some items may not be available to all areas.

We reserve the right to revise any carriage charges in the event of carrier price increase or other unforeseen circumstances. We will always advise of the carriage charge before payment is taken.

All Dobies products should reach you in perfect condition, just as they left us. If you are dissatisfied in any way with their condition on arrival, please let us know within 14 days. We are only liable for the cost of the goods as quoted on the website plus the cost of delivery if the goods are faulty.

Unlike many companies, we publish all of our reviews - good or bad - to give you, the customer, total transparency and peace of mind.
