My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

ID pitcher plants?

13 years ago

I recently bought two sarracenias from a grocery store (of all places) but unfortunately they didn't say what species they are. Can anyone help me out?

I think this one is a red cultivar of S. alata or something.

And I think this one is a variant of S. purpurea (or maybe it is purpurea, saw some others in the store just like it with more developed colors)

Thanks!
