Species

There are eight or eleven species of Sarracenia, depending on who you ask, plus many subspecies, varieties, and color forms. Due to wetland destruction and poaching they are very threatened in the wild. S. oreophila, S.rubra ssp. alabamensis, and D. rubra ssp. jonesii are endangered species and may not be shipped outside of California. Start your American pitcher plant collection today and help us preserve this endangered group of plants.

The following are approximate heights of our Sarracenia:

Small: Young plants, with summer leaves 2-3" high.

Medium: plants average 3-7" high.

Larger: nearly mature or mature plants average 7-15" and up.

American Pitcher Plants are dormant in Winter. As such, if you order them from November - March, they may have only dry brown pitchers or none at all. In the Spring they will quickly grow up to look like the one pictured.
