Prefers a well-drained, humus-rich, loamy soil and a position in full sun or partial shade. The flowers of many species in this genus form an intricate trap for pollinating insects. The insects are tempted to an area of the flower where they are unable to grip and they slide down into the utricle - downward pointing hairs prevent them climbing out. The trap helps to ensure the fertilization of the flowers and the insects are eventually released<ref name="How to plant/cultivate"/>
