Sarracenia farnhamii hybrid

Sarracenia farnhamii hybrid

S. farnhamii is commonly known as Farnham’s Pitcher Plant, named after William Farnham, an early 19th-century naturalist who discovered the plant in Alabama.

The plant grows in bogs and wetlands, where it typically forms clumps of upright, trumpet-shaped leaves that are green with reddish-brown veins.

Sarracenia farnhamii is a relatively small pitcher plant, with leaves typically reaching lengths of around 15-30 cm. The flowers are also small and inconspicuous, and typically appear in late spring or early summer.

Like other pitcher plants, Sarracenia farnhamii requires a moist, acidic growing medium, and is adapted to nutrient-poor environments.

Sarracenia Plant Care

Watering

You can’t overwater a Sarracenia, in principle. It’s not a problem for this plant to stand continuously in water. We advise you to put the potted plant in a dish of water. Make sure there is always enough water in the dish. Tap water is fine.

Location

Keep the plant in a light spot. This is important for growth and colouring. This can be in the window sill or outside. The plant also likes a humid climate.

All the Sarracenias in our range can easily survive in temperatures between -10°C to 40°C. Therefore, pond side is the ideal place for the plant outside. The plant goes dormant towards autumn and winter. Old pitchers turn brown and the plant doesn’t form new pitchers. In spring or early summer the development of the plant and new pitchers will resume.

Fertilizer

The same applies to all carnivorous plants. They started to catch insects because they live in nutrient-poor soil. Although fertilizer is easy, you quickly give too much. Therefore it is better not to give any.

The majority of our national delivery options fall under the categories below. Certain oversized or age restricted items carry an additional delivery charge, however this will be clearly displayed in your basket before checkout.
