This plant has a type of inner beauty that radiates forth and attracts like-minded folks who can appreciate its sublime elegance. It is also a vigorous growers and forms large clumps over time. It's a worthwhile addition to any Sarracenia collection.

• April: Spring growth will appear by the end of the month.
• May: Fully developed pitchers will start to appear.
• June: Full display of pitchers. This plant will look its best!
• July-August: Plant will slow down when it’s hot. Some minor spotting.
• September-October: Dormancy begins. Fewer pitchers. No new growth until spring.
• November-December: Plant is dormant. Browned pitchers are cut off.

The plants arrived quite promptly, especially considering the distance. Looking forward to further e-mailings from you and more purchases. Don.

    The customer service is prompt and first rate. Every order I get has been exactly as described on their web sight and well worth the money. All plants I have bought in the last year or more have been carefully packed. It should be obvious this is a first class establishment that cares for their plants AND customers.
