Sarracenia oreophila Giant
pitcher plant clone giant
Description
Sarracenia oreophila 'Giant' is a large and impressive carnivorous plant, notable for its tall, green pitchers with red veining. The pitchers are trumpet-shaped and designed to trap insects, supplementing the plant's nutrient intake, which is especially needed in its native nutrient-poor soils. The pitchers often feature a flared hood. The plant produces yellow flowers. It thrives in full sun, acidic, nutrient-poor soil, and requires consistently moist conditions, making it an excellent addition to your garden, especially with careful watering using distilled or rainwater. Propagation is best achieved through rhizome division to preserve its large size.
