Do not fertilize these plants with dry fertilizer! They get all their food from "eating" insects! If you are growing the plant where it cannot catch insects for long periods, you can add an occasional small insect such as a fly, a cockroach or a few very small insects to mature pitchers. Many types benefit from very mild, diluted liquid orchid fertilizer such as SUNSHINE Orchidasm, and solution should be added only to the pitchers when they are 3/4 filled with water.

The philodendron White Wizard is a notoriously beautiful variegated philodendron that has boomed in popularity and price the last few years. The White Wizard has your everyday green stem, but it is often streaked, or rather, hemmed with white lines. Sometimes, the petioles (stems) may even turn burgundy. White Wizard always has dark green leaves with patches of white. This variegation creates a contrasting balance that you can only find in paintings from the Gothic era. The philodendron White Wizard is quite a slow grower, but it's worth waiting for. It can grow up to 2-3 feet tall, making it a perfect indoor plant.
