Sarracenia flava var rubricorpora F3
yellow pitcher plant
Description
Sarracenia flava var. rubricorpora F3 is a cultivar of the yellow pitcher plant, selected for its intense coloration. 'Rubricorpora' indicates a strong red coloration within the pitchers. The F3 designation means it's the third generation after initial cross-breeding, stabilizing desirable traits. These plants are renowned for their striking appearance, with vibrant red or burgundy throats and lids. It shares the same carnivorous behavior as the parent species, capturing insects in its trumpet-shaped pitchers. Like other Sarracenia, it prefers acidic, nutrient-poor soil, full sun, and consistent moisture. Cultivation requires a specific soil mix, bright light and consistent moisture, making them excellent for experienced growers.
