Sarracenia Mix Seeds

Ease to Grow: Moderate Dormancy: Required Native Range: Wet acidic bogs of Eastern and Southeastern North America. Zones: 4-8 (4-9) The American Pitcher Plants, Sarracenia, are remarkable carnivorous plants with tube-shaped leaves that attract, capture and digest insects. They are tall and showy, often with attractive color and wonderful venation. The hoods secrete sweet nectar and act like umbrellas to shield the digestive fluids within the tubes from rain. Sarracenia prefer open, wet, boggy conditions. They generally have moderately fragrant flowers that range from pale yellow to maroon red, depending upon the type. They usually bloom from March to April just before the pitchers fully develop. Flower stalks and sepals may last through the year, resembling reddish-green daffodils. Provide for dormancy. These are great additions to any bog garden. This selection of seed may include: S. leucophylla, S. flava, S. purpurea, S. alata, S. rubra, S. minor, and assorted hybrids. Seed Packs ar
