Sarracenia purpurea subsp venosa var burkii

In Sarracenia , the leaves of the variety Sarracenia purpurea burkii are even more broadly wavy than the typical variety venosa , but the most striking feature of this variety is its flowers, whose petals range from lavender pink to pastel pink.

This plant is native to the central coastal plain of the Gulf of Mexico and was named burkii in honor of Mr. Louis Burk, a renowned horticulturist from Philadelphia.

From 8 to 15 cm high.

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