Some first-time growers mistake the distinctive hooded pitcher, Sarracenia minor, for the cobra plant, Darlingtonia californica. Both plants have a hood that hides the opening of the pitcher. Their leaves also have light spots on the back, which trick insects into going further inside the trap. Fortunately, Sarracenia minor is much easier to grow and is much more forgiving of mistakes than the cobra plant. This plant appreciates warm summers and a long growing season. Look for yellow flowers in mid to late spring.
Type of Plant: Outdoor perennial for container growing.
Height: Up to 12 inches.
Sunlight: Full sun during the growing season.
Water: Low-mineral water (50 ppm or less).

2nd Season Divisions
After dividing our mother plants in spring, we grow the divisions for a year before releasing them. You get a more vigorous plant with a healthier root system when compared to a recent division.
All outdoor perennials experience seasonal changes at our nursery in Oregon.

• April: Spring growth will appear by the end of the month.
• May: Fully developed pitchers will gradually appear.
• June-August: Full display of pitchers.
• September: Plant produces its best pitchers of the season.
• October: Dormancy begins. Fewer pitchers. No new growth until spring.
• November-December: Plant is dormant. Browned pitchers are cut off.

Great looking plant. Arrived in perfect shape. Sarracenia Northwest does the best packaging job on plants I've come across. Great vendor.
Great looking plant. Usual great quality from Sarracenia Northwest.
I am not that person that expects plants to be flawless or anything for that matter, life happens, but this plant could have been in a photo shoot. We will surely order from them again.
I received my plants quickly and they were in amazing condition i’ve had them for about 2 months now and they are thriving!
I've purchased plants from several nurseries where they have been badly damaged before, and I questioned if they would even survive. This time I saw the best packaging and care used of any nursery
Healthy, great plant
