Sarracenia leucophylla – The Southern Belle with a Killer Instinct 🏹
🏹 Sarracenia leucophylla – The Southern Belle with a Killer Instinct
Lace, elegance, and absolutely no mercy for bugs.
Meet Sarracenia leucophylla, the showstopper of the carnivorous plant world. With tall, fluted pitchers dressed in crisp white hoods veined in crimson, she looks like she's wearing high fashion straight out of a Victorian horror story. But don’t let the elegance fool you — she’s a cold-blooded gnat assassin.
This native Southeastern U.S. pitcher plant thrives in full sun and wet soil, luring unsuspecting insects with her flashy “lace” and sweet scent... only to trap and digest them. Pest control? Check. Conversation piece? Absolutely. Drama? Only the kind you want.
🦟 Natural bug control — fruit flies, gnats, and flying annoyances beware
🌞 Loves full sun and boggy conditions
🌱 Grows tall, upright pitchers up to 24"+
📦 Shipped potted or bare root (depending on season) — ready to grow, not just to survive
Add some gothic glam to your bog garden, container display, or carnivorous collection. She's bold. She's deadly. She's fabulous.
✨ Comes with care instructions and a whole lot of attitude
Native to the southeastern U.S., leucophylla is known for its late-season growth spurt—when other plants are winding down, she’s just getting started. Her traps grow tall, elegant, and deadly (to bugs only), attracting wasps, moths, and every gnat that thought it had plans.
Whether you’re expanding your bog setup or just looking for a plant with flair and fangs, Sarracenia leucophylla brings serious style and serious snacking power.
👉 Grab yours before it flies off the shelf (get it?).
Plant is in a 2" pot and will ship bare root.
COLD CLIMATES - ADD HEAT PACK
We strongly advise to include a Heat Pack (available on our shop) in order to protect the plant from temperature extremes. Any order that does NOT have a heat pack is not covered by the live plant guarantee.
Plant Sizing Guide
What Size Am I Getting? Let's Break It Down.
We get it—plant sizes can be confusing. Is a “small” the size of a golf ball or a grapefruit? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered. Below is a quick guide to help you understand what each size means when shopping our plants. Measurements refer to the plant body, not including the pot (unless noted).

- Example: Aeonium cutting, sundew cluster
Medium
- Established plant, 3"–5" wide/tall. Ready for repotting or display.
