Sarracenia leucophylla red tube

€22.00
VAT included

In the splendid Sarracenia family, Sarracenia leucophylla is a carnivorous plant highly sought after for the white of the upper part of its pitchers, which distinguishes it from all other plants. Its fine and slender traps are among the largest in Sarracenia . In autumn, it is the last to produce pitchers, which are generally the tallest of the year. A superb species, essential to any collection!

A form of the famous white-leaf Sarracenia, the top of the pitchers here turns bright red in correlation with exposure to the sun.
The urns are thin and slender, reaching up to 1m high.

From October to March (rest period) , the foliage of the plant partially disappears. The Sarracenia leucophylla red tube is then delivered in the form of a rhizome still rooted in a pot and ready to start again in the spring.

Sarracenia & maintenance

Sarracenia and Temperature

Up to 40°C in summer. Protect from frost if the carnivorous plant is in a small pot (less than 20 cm in diameter). Tolerates up to -15°C in a large pot or peat bog.

Sarracenia and watering

Use only rainwater, demineralized or osmosis . Water that is too hard will cause your Sarracenia to die in a few weeks. Do not use bottled water, as it generally contains too much salt, which is harmful to the plant. In summer, place the plant in a large saucer with water. In winter, keep the substrate moist.

Fertilizer for Sarracenia

To be totally avoided! The plant provides its own organic nutrient needs thanks to its traps.

Sarracenia Exhibition
