They grow well in a standard peat moss/sand which can be anything from 50% to 70% peat moss. There's no need to fertilize, as the plant relies on insects for food.
When the leaves first appear their colour is red-pinkish, but then they turn deep green and grow to about 12 to 18 cm long. They are attached to long flexible stalks, which makes them rustle, flutter and dance in the slightest whiff of wind
