Sarracenia rosea AF original Apalachicola NF FL Jim Bockowski - DM (Shipped Bare-Root)

This Sarracenia rosea from Apalachicola National Forest represents a classic Florida form gathered by the late Jim Bockowski (1943-2018), a respected collector whose specimens became foundational breeding stock. Native to Liberty County's wet pine savannas, this clone displays the species' signature pale green pitchers suffused with dull purple-red and reticulated veining, transforming to velvety crimson by fall, paired with distinctive rosy-pink flowers on characteristically short stalks.

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.
