pitcher plant
Description
Sarracenia flava var. atropurpurea Mk F27B is a distinctive variety of the yellow pitcher plant, often prized for its vibrant coloration. The pitchers are tall and trumpet-shaped, with a reddish-purple coloration, which often intensifies with age. The plant is carnivorous, trapping insects in its pitchers using a pitfall mechanism. It thrives in full sun and acidic, nutrient-poor soil. Water with rainwater or distilled water to avoid mineral buildup. This plant is a visually striking addition to any bog garden or carnivorous plant collection and is considered one of the most sought-after forms.
