Description
Sarracenia flava var. ruegelii 'Giant' is a large and impressive carnivorous plant, known for its tall, yellow pitchers. The pitchers are trumpet-shaped, and can grow to be quite substantial in size, trapping insects to supplement the plant's nutrient intake. They have a pronounced, often ruffled hood, and are very attractive to insects. This variety is distinguished by its larger size. The flowers are yellow as well. The plant requires full sun, acidic, nutrient-poor soil, and consistently moist conditions. Propagate it from rhizome division or seed, to maintain its specific traits and make more plants to enjoy.
