Utricularia parthenopipes needs a humid environment due to its origin. This should be 80%. Aim for a temperature around 28⁰C to 30⁰C in the summer and a temperature around 20⁰C during winter. A light spot results in a rich blossoming. Water Utricularia parthenopipes using mineral poor water, like rainwater. This carnivore needs moist soil constantly and can be put under water every now and then. The substrate is ideally a mixture of peat moss and perlite or pumice.
