Sarracenia leucophylla 'Pitcher Plant' in 12 cm pot

Sarracenia leucophylla 'Pitcher Plant'

Sarracenia leucophylla is a striking North American pitcher plant, prized for its tall, elegant traps marked with white veining and rich red or green accents. The upright pitchers act as natural insect traps, making this carnivorous plant both functional and visually dramatic. Its bold form and seasonal colour shifts make it a standout in any collection.

Best grown in bright light with consistently moist conditions, this species is well suited to sunny windows, greenhouses, or outdoor bog planters in frost-free periods. It is a rewarding plant for growers interested in carnivorous species.

PLANT CARE

• Light: Bright light to full sun for best colour and growth
• Water: Keep soil moist at all times using rainwater or distilled water
• Humidity: Prefers moderate to high humidity
• Considerations: Avoid fertiliser; pitchers catch their own food if insects are available
