Sarracenia x Red Bug

This plant arrived healthy and strong. It is doing nicely in our environment. I would buy plants from this nursery again because they know what they are doing and share their knowledge with their customers.

This is my second order with Carnivorous Plant Nursery and both plants arrived in great shape and are growing perfectly. My Red Bug had 2 fully formed pitchers on it and looks fantastic and I look forward to watching it grow. Completely satisfied!

This Sarracenia Red Bug was well protected with 2 other plants I purchased along with some potting medium. The package came on the weekend so I guessed on which direction the roots and rhizome should have been sitting in the new lower box mix. Thankfully the staff at Carnivorous Plant Nursery is responsive and let me know that the rhizome is supposed to grow parallel to the soil surface. That's not what I did... it was suggested that I repot in the fall when it goes into dormancy. Plus that will give me an opportunity to put the medium sized Sarracenia into a proper size pot about 6". Don't make my rookie mistake, just remember roots down, plant pitchers up and the staff here is very helpful.

I had wanted a red sarracenia and not quite sure why I settled on this one. However it arrived healthy with multiple pitchers! They even started to get to work ridding my backyard of flies while I was potting up the rest of my order. It’s a really lovely maroon red color, and seems to be doing well. I feel like it does look a lot nicer in person than through the photos here or the one I took. Again, I really like the red coloring on these. There was one small immature pitcher that did get damaged in transit, but the rest of the plant is fine. It should replace that in no time at all. Especially with the pitchers that are almost half full of bugs. Should have plenty of nutrition. Great packaging again 5/5 stars. Definitely consider buying more from this nursery again!

Arrived in great condition. Potted well and is thriving outside in full sun.
