Description

The listing, Purple Pitcher Plant (5) has ended.

I don't have any experience with these plants yet, but I have already planted so the seeds. They like direct sun light & chlorine free water. I have well water & I am going to save my rain water. Apparently the cone of these plants produce a sweet nectar that attract insects & this is what they eat. They are carnivore plants, kind of like the venus fly trap..So this ought to be interesting. TY for looking! :)

You have my attention. . . I wonder if these are the type of plants that have their own unique (read as not a "pretty") fragrance? Any ideas?

They do have a slight fragrance, I think it entices insects, since that it what they eat :)

Is this auction for the plant or the seeds? I'm a bit confused by "but I have already planted so the seeds. " Thanks. Interesting!
