Full description and specifications
Sarracenia, the pitcher plant, is a carnivore in the true sense of the word. The plant normally feeds on insects that it captures with skill, but it can also be fed on pieces of meat that it digests slowly, in 2-3 days.
Sarracenia grows very well in Sphagnum Peat with compost, fertilizers and specific microelements - substrate that you can find here: Sarracenia substrate.
IMPORTANT: Insectivorous / carnivorous plants do not represent any kind of danger to humans. Their digestive juice is at most a good hand sanitizer!
Plant height: 15-20 cm
