Bring home one of the most mesmerizing carnivorous plants nature has to offer — the Darlingtonia californica 'Red Flower', also known as the Cobra Lily. Native to cold mountain seeps and bogs of northern California and Oregon, this rare cultivar is prized not only for its striking, cobra-shaped foliage but also for its deep red flowering stem, an uncommon and coveted trait among collectors.

Each plant comes securely rooted in a specialist carnivorous plant mix within a breathable grow cup, making it easy to acclimate to your setup.

Features:

• 1 healthy Cobra Lily plant per cup

• Cultivar: Darlingtonia californica 'Red Flower'

• Distinctive red blooms in season

• Pitchers mimic a striking cobra with a forked “tongue” (the forked lid)

• Grows well in cool, pure water with bright light and high humidity

Growing Conditions:

• Light: Bright, indirect sunlight or full sun with root cooling

• Water: Only use rainwater, distilled, or reverse osmosis water

• Temperature: Prefers cool roots (below 22°C); thrives in climates with cold nights

• Substrate: Long-fiber sphagnum moss or a peat/perlite mix

Acclimation:

Your plant is shipped in a grow cup with a lid to maintain humidity during transit. Remove the lid gradually over 3–5 days once received to allow the plant to adjust to ambient humidity levels. Avoid placing it in direct sun immediately — give it time to adapt to your conditions.

This rare 'Red Flower' Cobra Lily is perfect for collectors, bog gardens, and those seeking a dramatic statement plant. As a cool-loving species, it rewards patience and the right setup with unique carnivorous elegance.
