Overview
Sarracenia purpurea subsp. venosa ‘Ewelina’ is a compact and vividly coloured North American pitcher plant cultivar prized for its richly veined red and green pitchers. Each trap forms a low rosette, flaring open to reveal intricate patterns and a glossy sheen that deepens with sunlight. The pitchers collect rainwater to form natural digestive pools, making this species both visually striking and functionally fascinating.

Plant Details
Each Grow Cup contains one young Sarracenia purpurea subsp. venosa ‘Ewelina’ planted in a nutrient-free carnivorous plant mix designed to maintain excellent drainage and moisture retention. The sealed humidity cup helps the plant adjust easily to its new environment while keeping it healthy and hydrated during shipping.
