My sarracenia has just opened a huge pitcher! It’s the biggest one the plant has produced so far. She has also been doing a good job of ridding the house of a fraction of Japanese Beatles, despite being 4 rooms away and inside of a greenhouse. πŸͺ΄πŸž I’m very proud of all the growth she’s had since I got her 3 - 4 months back. 🌱 The first picture is when I had just gotten her and the second is her now! 🌱πŸͺ΄ @Merranda I think you’d appreciate a post on sarracenias. #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #NewGrowth #GrowLights #cpclubthursday #CarnivorousPlants #CarnivorousClub #Sarracenia

Absolutely beautiful 😍. I wish mine would grow like this.
@Ninabeena thank you! I’m sure it will, just give it some time.
Super beautiful! Love the ruffled lids on the pitchers πŸ˜„ She's definitely come a long way!
SO COOL!! I want a carnivorous plant so bad!!
@Merranda thank you! I figured you’d appreciate a before and after on a sarracenia.
@I_AM_HOUSEPLANT thank you! You should get one!
@reese.rae Great photo and nice to see your plant loving things so much! A before and after photo is a great idea πŸ’‘ it’s impressive how it has taken off.
@Seymour thank you! I like to think she appreciates my care.
Beautiful! I just got one like yours and I've been looking for posts with the same type to get some tips. Any specific tips and care that you could give me? 🫢🏼
@MonsterasInc thank you! I keep mine under a grow light for around 12 - 14 hours a day, although if you’re doing direct sunlight I’d recommend upwards of 6 hours. She’s planted in sphagnum moss and a carnivorous plant soil, (sorry I’m not sure which that is), around her roots. I also have her in a little dish of distilled water for constant access so the moss doesn’t run dry.
