<p><b>Ease to Grow:</b> Challenging<br><b>Dormancy:</b> Recommended<br><b>Native Range:</b> Peat Bogs of Eastern and Northern North America.<br><b>Zones:</b> 2-7 (2-8)</p> <p>The Northern Purple Pitcher Plant, <i>Sarracenia purpurea purpurea</i> is low growing with short, stout traps, often showing burgundy color and red veins in full sun. In the winter it frequently turns a gorgeous deep reddish purple color. The external pitcher surface is waxy and feels hard to the touch. It tends to clump and form colonies, about 4+ feet across. Traps hold their color through the winter and for nearly 2 years. It is a fragrant, early spring bloomer, growing deep red blossoms on 12 inch scapes that flower well before the new traps develop. Flower stalks and sepals last through the year, resembling green daffodils. It prefers mild summers and cold winters. It is native, in several varieties, from Maryland to Newfoundland, and is hardy to zone 2. It is the only native <i>Sarracenia</i> north of Maryland. It is well-suited for terrariums and the backyard bog garden north into Canada.</p> <p>Seed Packs are fresh harvested in Fall, and stored refrigerated. Seed count (25) is approximate, but reliable.</p> <p>Note: Stratification is required to prepare sarracenia purpurea seeds for germination.<span data-mce-fragment="1"> All Purple Pitcher Plant seeds are produced from open pollination within our collection.</span> Some cross pollination may occur, and seed offspring may or may not be true to mother plant, though not likely with this species. Growing carnivorous plants from seeds is best suited for the experienced and patient grower.
