Nepenthes sanguinea is an excellent plant for the first-time grower. It can remain compact for many years, which makes it a great candidate for any sunny windowsill. Large, established plants can be quite impressive, with pitchers growing to 9 inches tall! With good lighting, its firm, waxy leaves will develop an attractive reddish-bronze hue.

Arrived healthy, still doing great
Arrived about a month ago, it was packaged very well with minimal damage. It is still looking great and just opened a brand new leaf along with a new pitcher!

BOGO Nepenthes
Sarracenia is by far the BEST place to buy carnivorous plants. Have made a number of purchases and have NEVER been disappointed. Plants arrive well packed, well hydrated and in excellent condition. Living in the southeast, many of my local nurseries have a fair to poor selection and the plants are in similar state. Jeff and Jacob have never let me down....Thank you so much. I began growing carnivorous about 2019 and have enjoyed expanding my collection and variety.

Nepenthes sanguinea
The packaging was great, and the Nepenthes immediately acclimatized to its new house. And it produced the first new pitcher in less than two weeks since I received it!

Nepenthes Sanguinea
Plants arrived very safely packaged, and were not too difficult to open. Even though they were a little cold initially, they adapted to the new environment quickly and have been growing very well. Would definitely buy from here again!

The plant arrived safely and was packaged well. He had one very well developed pitcher already! He’s transitioning nicely (I hope) into his new home.

Nepenthes sanguinea
This plant was healthy on arrival. After a short adaptation period, it is growing nicely, developing new pitchers. I just noticed another small growth with tiny pitchers at the base of the plant.
