GENERAL INFORMATION

  • These plants get their name from their pitcher-shaped leaves.
  • They capture insects by producing nectar along the rim of their pitchers.
  • When an insect starts to lick up the nectar, it tries to get more by reaching in the pitcher.
  • When it loses its footing, it falls right in!

SOIL REQUIREMENT

  • Use a soil mixture of 1 part peat moss and 1 part perlite.
  • Never use potting soil, compost, or fertilizer; these ingredients will kill your plants.

  • During the growing season, grow your Sarracenia outside in the full sun with 6 or more hours of direct sunlight, for vigorous growth.
  • If full sun is not possible, provide a minimum of 4 hours of direct sunlight with bright indirect light during the rest of the day.

WATER REQUIREMENT

  • Place the pots in a tray filled with 1-2cm of distilled water or rainwater, adding water to the tray rather than top watering.
  • These are bog plants, and the growing media should be kept moist throughout the growing season.
