If plants could be introverts, this one would qualify compared to the flashier forms of S. flava. This plant has an inner beauty that radiates and attracts like-minded people who can appreciate its subtle elegance. It is also a vigorous grower and forms large clumps over time. It's a worthwhile addition to any Sarracenia collection.

ABOUT MATURE DIVISIONS
After we divide our mother plants, we allow the rhizomes to mature for at least one full growing season, sometimes two, before including them in our inventory. You get a much more vigorous and robust plant than one that has been recently divided.
