Unit price perSarracenia rubra ssp. jonesii is probably the most endangered species of the American pitcher plants and grows in only a handful of remaining sites. Mature plants are beautiful looking with narrow pitchers that have a distinct bulge in the throat just before the mouth.
These are seed-grown from Etowah, Henderson Co, NC. And these were selected because they are anthoycanin-free!
*If you see black mold on your pitcher, don't panic! This harmless mold grows on the pitcher nectar, and it is not harmful to your plant. It exists on all Sarracenia but is more noticeable on the anthocyanin-free plants. Although some consider it unsightly, it is totally normal and occurs on both plants in the wild and in cultivation. It can be difficult to wipe off, but the more persnickety of us can try!
California Carnivores can ship this plant outside of California as per Permit Number ESPER0002076, the plant and any resulting seeds or progeny may not be planted on Federal property, these are artificially propagated.
