This is one of the carnivorous plants I started growing late winter this year. Growth has been excellent. Beautiful form and color. The cultivar is Sarracenia "Judith Hindle"
I'm happy with it as is but I'm interested to see if it will bloom next year.
This was much easier to grow than I anticipated. I kept it in a dish of water, about an inch of water, all summer. There might have been 2 or 3 occasions when it dried out, which did not appear to set it back too much.
I used rain water, which we collect in a rain barrel from roof runoff. I did give a small amout of miracle gro, 1/4 strength, in the pitchers. I don't know if that did anything.
