Highlights
Sarracenia 'White Wizard': These bog pitcher plants have round, tube leaves with a rounded top and lime green lips around the opening. These catch a prolific amount of insects by drawing them in with a sweet scent. The insects climb inside the leaves where the slippery hairs cause them to lose their footing, so they fall into the digestive juices below. These plants ship fully rooted in a 3" pot.
Please note: These plants are not succulents and cannot handle any drought. Keep the soil consistently moist with pure water. The dissolved minerals in tap water will kill these plants in time. Use distilled water.
General care: Try using a tray with 1" of water in the bottom to keep the plants consistently moist. Be sure to use a peat heavy soil mixture because these plants love acid soils. A 3:1 ratio of peat moss to perlite is a great mix. These plants prefer full sun. They also prefer being outside. Be sure to allow it to get cold in the winter and enter into dormancy. An unheated greenhouse or garage is perfect.
