My favorite
A beautiful plant. Since it was winter I spected no pitchers. But it had a couple. Now here since is tropical it has new ones growing. Love the plant. Thank you. Happy with the your attention and service.
Native to the Florida Panhandle and through North Carolina. It has ground-hugging rain-catchers, sporting conspicuous purple-red leaves with wide, heavily patterned hoods. It grows slower than other types of Sarracenia but will form an impressive clump over time. Plant remains relatively short when fully mature, 6-8 inches. Tends to be deciduous during winter.

Height: Up to 4 inches.
Sunlight: Full sun during the growing season.
Water: Low-mineral water (50 ppm or less).
Soil: Equal parts peat moss and perlite only.
