Description:
Sarracenia purpurea, a carnivorous pitcher plant, is native to nutrient-poor, acidic bogs and is the most cold-tolerant of its kind. It forms a 1-foot wide clump with red-veined green pitchers that turn red in fall. This plant captures prey with the help of an invertebrate community and produces red flowers in spring. It is the floral emblem of Newfoundland and Labrador and is easy to grow in suitable conditions.
