Description: A site on the care of Cephalotus follicularis ('Albany pitcher plant", "Western Australian pitcher plant", "Australian pitcher plant")
A site dedicated to the care of Cephalotus follicularis plants.
I’ve been growing Cephalotus follicularis for 20+ years and I still find it a fascinating species. Most of my growing experience comes from growing them indoors on windowsills and under artificial lighting.
My collection of Cephalotus has steadily grown over many years but I have now reduced it to just the clones I like and want to grow. I particularly like the clones with unusual shaped pitchers. I also like the dark clones, as many others do, but in my experience obtaining such colouration needs very specific conditions that not all growers are going to be able to achieve.
