Sarracenia flava cuprea Reversed Veins - Small (Shipped Bare-Root)

This striking Sarracenia flava var. cuprea selection displays the rare reversed vein trait, where green veins trace across a dark red or copper background—the inverse of typical pitcher venation. Most commonly seen when select S. flava var. maxima clones are used in breeding, this distinctive characteristic creates dramatic contrast on the pitcher lids and tubes of this naturally occurring Carolina variant.

Our bare root Sarracenia (North American pitcher plants) are shipped according to their natural growing cycle. During the active growing season (spring through early fall), you'll receive a plant with live foliage, often including vibrant pitchers. In the winter months, Sarracenia naturally enter dormancy, and will be shipped without leaves or with brown, dying pitchers—this is completely normal and essential for the plant's long-term health. Please note that the plant and photo shown are representative of the variety but not the exact plant you will receive. Each plant is unique, and we guarantee a healthy, established rhizome ready to grow.
