Product Details
Description
- Sarracenia Purpurea Venosa (Reedy Creek, Caroline Co.)
- 10 x premium purple pitcher plant seeds
Our Seeds
- These are fresh seeds harvested within the last two seasons, and either imported from trusted private growers and nurseries or harvested from our own plants
- With so many imitations online, all our seeds are genuine carnivorous plant seeds - We guarantee it
- Starting and nurturing your very own carnivorous plant jungle can be very rewarding and most of the seed available on the store have been tested on germination in our own seedling chamber
- Growing carnivorous plants from seed requires a lot of patience
- Sarracenia seed will need 4-6 weeks cold stratification
- This can be accomplished by sowing your seeds in a protected area outdoors during winter or by cold stratification in the fridge
- Under optimal conditions, sarracenia seed usually germinates within 6-8 weeks after cold stratification and seedlings may take 5 or more years to reach maturity
- As this process is mostly a waiting game, it is mostly recommended for the adventure carnivorous plant enthusiast
Sowing Guide
- Our recommended sowing instructions are available in the FAQ section, however doing some research on required growing conditions, before making your purchase, would be in your favour
- Due to a range of factors we can not guarantee germination, but we can guarantee one of the most important factors with regards to germination rate: FRESH SEEDS
- When available the harvest date will be recorded on the seed packet

Disclaimer
- Just a quick heads-up: Since plants are natural products, you might notice some slight variations when unboxing your plants
- We do our best to make sure the plants you receive look like the ones in the photos, but keep in mind that seasons change and plants grow. Some leaves might age and die off, new ones might sprout and the plants may look a bit different over time
- 99% of what we sell are one-of-a-kind collector items, so you will receive the exact plant pictured. The labels are spot on, so even if the plant looks a bit different, we 100% guarantee it's the real deal
- Also, all the photos you see are of our own plants unless we mention otherwise. We update images occasionally to keep things fresh. If you want to see updated pictures before you buy, just let us know – we're happy to help!
