Sarracenia oreophila “Sand Mountain” Potted

Sarracenia oreophila is nearly extinct in the wild.  It looks similar to Sarracenia flava, producing most of its pitchers in spring and going dormant in late summer.  Pitchers are tall and stately, usually green, but many clones have strong red venation. These are divisions of our botanical collection and are from the famous “Sand Mountain” site! Peter has been using this in his hybrids for decades!

California Carnivores can ship this plant outside of California as per Permit Number ESPER0002076

Temperature: 20 degrees - 80 degrees, can even take temperatures from freezing to 100 degrees but only for short periods
Dormancy: All Sarracenia require a winter dormancy starting in October and ending in February. Many of the pitchers will turn brown and die back during this time.
