Advice from our agronomist

Light and position Sarracenia needs plenty of direct sun; in low light colour fades and the plant weakens.

Watering Water only with distilled or rainwater; keep the soil constantly wet with a layer of water in the saucer.

Humidity and care Substrate: peat and sand; a cool dormant period (2–10 °C) in winter is essential or the plant weakens.

Feeding and repotting Do not fertilise; the plant gets nutrients from insects. Repot in spring if necessary.
