Sarracenia: getting off to a good start

Now is the time to refresh your Sarracenia plants, if you haven’t already done so before winter. Cleaning should be carried out before growth resumes and, in particular, before the new pitchers appear, as they are very fragile!

Keep only the healthy leaves, which are still carrying out photosynthesis, and remove anything that has died. The inflorescences and the first seed pods emerging from a small cluster of phyllodes (the only leaves remaining in the second image) give the potted plant a very harmonious appearance.
