Question
I ordered the plant and it came to me in about a week.
It looked healthy and came with a pitcher. It turned brown
and died off like I expected to.But the leaves have red
stuff all over it and I don't know what it is. Please help
identify it and how to stop this for the leaves that will
grow on my plant.
Thanks.

Answer
Hello Jin,

Since I cannot see the plant, I do not know exactly what the red "stuff" is.

There are a couple of things that could be happening. If the red "stuff" rubs off with your finger, it is probably fungus or mold growing on the leaf surfaces on which nectar from the plant has collected. This is often unavoidable unless you can increase the airation and light around the plant to kill the mold off.

If the coloration on the leaves does not rub off with your finger, it is likely produced by the plant itself as a reaction to high intensity light. Many species of Nepenthes produce red coloration on their leaves when placed in strong light. My Nepenthes sanguinea and Nepenthes truncata both display red coloration on their leaves under my 18000 lumen shop lights. This is normal and unavoidable if you want the Nepenthes in good light to keep up pitcher growth and plant health.
