Sarracenia purpurea subsp.venosa forms short, squat pitchers that are greenish purple, sometimes turning completely purple. The lid doesn’t cover the pitcher but forms ear-like wings that curl inward and are covered in rough hairs. This species earns the name ‘venosa’ due to its highly conspicuous veins that branch in tree-like patterns over the pitcher and lids. Sweet secretions on the lip of the pitcher lure unsuspecting insects that slide down the slippery funnel, tumbling to their deaths in a pool of digestive juices at the bottom. This Sarracenia makes an unusual specimen for a greenhouse, conservatory or windowsill and an ideal gift for the botanically curious. Maximum height and spread: 50cm (20in).
