1 Carnivorous Purple Pitcher Plant -Sarracenia purpurea

I ordered two of the Purple Pitchers and they arrived very quickly and in excellent condition. After only a couple of weeks they are growing new pitchers. The color of the plant is amazing with the contrasting veins and dark red color of the pitchers. I would recommend the purchase of a good book about growing carnivorous plants to help with any questions you may have but more importantly to make sure you are growing the plant properly. Excellent service and merchandise from Hirt's.

The plant I got was larger than what I expected! Usually carnivorous plants I order are sent as tiny seedlings; this was large enough that after a week or so I felt I could feed it, I put a cricket in one of the pitchers and now there are new ones sprouting like mad! Some of the new pitchers are already longer than the originals; this is a wonderful buy for anyone even mildly interested in carnivorous plants.
