Sarracenia moorei

Owned by David Fefferman (@David).

Notes

Family: Sarraceniaceae. Sarracenia are carnivorous plants that trap insects in modified tubular leaves. They require nutrient-poor, acidic substrate (like a peat/perlite mix) and must be watered with pure water (rain, distilled, or RO) as minerals in tap water will kill them. They also require a cold winter dormancy period to remain healthy.
