Trumpet pitcher plant x Stephensii (Sarracenia x Stephensii) is a cultivar of the North-American carnivorous pitcher plants from the Sarracenia genus. Insects are attracted by the sugars formed in the pitchers and they will be trapped in the pitchers after which the hoods will ensure that the insects can’t escape anymore. Araflora thinks it is a big advantage of plants like Pitcherplant x Stephensii (Sarracenia x Stephensii) that they are all hardy plants to a more or lesser extent.
Trumpet pitcher plant x Stephensii (Sarracenia x Stephensii) is a hardy carnivorous plant that can be grown at home in front of a sunny window. Sarracenis x stephensii thrives in a location that receives plenty of direct sunlight, ideally 6 or more hours per day. This makes it a great choice for indoor environments, especially when placed on a sunny windowsill. This Sarracenia can also be kept around a pond or in a vegetable garden outdoors. The plant can withstand severe frost if it’s properly protected by covering it with hay or, during snowfalls, adding extra snow over the plant to shield it from freezing temperatures. Sarracenia x Stephensii loves sunlight and can tolerate heat, but it is crucial that it never dries out. Therefore, it's best to place it on a water tray or bed, ensuring the roots remain constantly moist. Since tap water often contains high levels of calcium, which Sarracenia species dislike, rainwater is the best option for watering. This species requires nutrient-poor soil, so a mix of peat, sand, and perlite works best. If any leaves turn brown, they should be trimmed off, as they no longer serve a function. With proper care, Sarracenia x Stephensii will thrive both indoors and outdoors, adding beauty and a unique touch to your home or garden.
