The dark red coloration and veins dominate the upper portions of the tubes which attract many flying insects, particularly wasps. As with <i>Sarracenia leucophylla</i>, it shows a preference for very wet, even water-logged areas. It can easily form colonies with each plant having 8 to 12 pitchers. It is very showy in the Spring, but especially in the Fall when other pitcher plants dwindle. Trumpets tolerate light frost, but do not overwinter. The large showy flowers are bright crimson to maroon and mildly fragrant. They often bend upward after pollination. They generally bloom from March to April before the pitchers fully develop.</p> <p><span>Plants are shipped bare-root, wrapped in damp sphagnum moss. In its dormant season, it will be shipped as a dormant rhizome with trimmed off pitchers. Photographs are representative of the cultivar, and not the specific plant shipped.</span></p> <p><b>Height:</b> 8"-28"<br> <b>Plant Type:</b> Perennial, temperate<br> <b>Soil:</b> <a title="Lower bog carnivorous plant soil mix" href="https://carnivorousplantnursery.com/collections/soils/products/soil-lower-bog-mix">Lower Bog Mix</a> or <a href="https://carnivorousplantnursery.com/collections/soils/products/all-purpose-soil-mix" title="All purpose carnivorous plant soil mix">All Purpose Mix</a><br> <b>Light:</b> Bright indoors, full sun outdoors<br> <b>Use:</b> Grows well in the bog garden and greenhouse.</p>
