Grow compact Purple Pitcher Plants from seed!
This batch of Sarracenia purpurea ssp. venosa f. compact comes from open-pollinated plants. The mother plant has classic squat venosa form, but as this is an open-pollinated batch, hybrids may occur.
Seeds were collected in Summer 23/24 and batch-tested for viability. As with all temperate Sarracenia species, these seeds require cold stratification for successful germination.
- Open-pollinated batch – hybrid traits may appear
- Compact form with strong venosa influence
- In-season harvest · Batch viability tested
- Cold stratification recommended before sowing
A digital sowing guide is included with your order. For a full setup, grab a Seed Starter Kit or book a Seed Starting Consult for personalised advice.
Note: Pitcher shape and colour may vary in the seedlings. That’s the fun of open-pollinated batches — you might grow something totally unique!
