Sarracenia Hybrid 'Catesbaei' Click for larger image.

This attractive sarracenia sports green & purple-veined and purple pitchers. It will grow pink to purple flowers and is recommended to keep cool in the winter

Like many of our Sarracenias it's pot sits in a dish which is regularly filled with rainwater.  DO NOT use tap water as the chemicals within will eventually kill the plant.

Plastic pots have been found to be the best as ceramic sometimes build up with salt which dehydrate the plant.
