€22.00

VAT included

Horticultural hybrid combining Sarracenia rubra and sarracenia psittacina . The hybridization was carried out in our greenhouses from our mother plants.
The individuals from our seedlings are uniform, very vigorous and colorful.

When fully grown, the plant will not exceed 25 to 30 cm in height.

Red spring flowering.

Note that the foliage, although reduced, does not disappear completely during the resting period.

From October to March (rest period) , the foliage of the plant partially disappears. The Sarracenia gilpini is then delivered in the form of a rhizome still rooted in a pot and ready to start again in the spring even if, generally, the foliage holds during the bad season.

The size indicated in the product description is that of the foliage in summer.

Characteristic: pot 9 cm

Sarracenia gilpini & 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.
