- Unique Appearance: The Sarracenia Pitcher Trumpet showcases tall, trumpet-shaped pitchers with vibrant colours. The white tops are intricately veined with crimson red, creating an exquisite display that is sure to catch the eye of any visitor.
- Carnivorous Nature: As a carnivorous plant, the Sarracenia Pitcher Trumpet has evolved to attract and trap insects. Its sweet nectar lures unsuspecting prey into its pitcher, where they slip down and are digested in the water held at the bottom. This fascinating process not only helps control pests but also provides essential nutrients to the plant.
- Ideal Size: Supplied in a 12.5cm nursery pot, this plant stands approximately 35cm tall, making it perfect for tabletops, windowsills, or as part of a larger indoor garden arrangement.
Care Instructions
- Light Requirements: The Sarracenia Pitcher Trumpet thrives in bright indirect light or full sun. Aim for at least four hours of sunlight each day to ensure optimal growth.
- Watering Needs: Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. It is best to water from below by placing the pot in about 1 cm of water and allowing the plant to absorb moisture through drainage holes. Use distilled or rainwater to avoid harmful chemicals found in tap water.
- Soil Type: This plant prefers low-nutrient soil conditions. A suitable mix includes sphagnum moss or a combination of peat moss and clean sharp sand.
