(PP 07) A very beautiful group of Carnivorous plants. S. purpurea have very low growing pitchers with upright lids called 'hoods'. This form is pure green with no veining, Easy and reliable the pitchers often last for two years. Like all Sarracenias they need to stand in 2.5cm (1") of soft (rain) water in acidic nutrient-less soil in full sun for good growth. They are efficient fly and wasp catchers both indoors and out. Good as container plants. Keep well hydrated spring to autumn but keep just damp in winter. Needs a cold winter dormancy for long term plant health. Good flycatchers for a sunny window sill. Plants may be sent bare rooted.
