We are pleased to present a dramatic new selection of our native purple pitcher plant from Itsaul Plants of Georgia. The large light green pitchers, which are held horizontally, are streaked with bright red lines, like your eyes after too much late night activity. Each 1' wide clump is topped in spring with the typical (dare I use that word around pitcher plants) red flying saucer-shaped flowers. Moist soil, but not standing water is best.
