Sarracenia purpurea ssp. purpurea var. stolonifera
pitcher plant clone purpurea var. stolonifera
Description
Sarracenia purpurea ssp. purpurea var. stolonifera, the Northern Pitcher Plant, is a carnivorous plant with short, squat pitchers, often colored in shades of green and red. The pitchers form a rosette and trap insects. The plant produces unique, umbrella-like, downward-facing flowers in the spring. This variety is known for its stoloniferous habit, meaning it spreads through underground stems, allowing the plant to create more plants in your garden. It thrives in full sun and acidic, nutrient-poor soil and loves consistent moisture, using rainwater or distilled water is best. Propagate through division or seeds for best results.
