Just thought I'd share a picture of my sarr.

I've had it for a little over a month now. I got it from Lowes for 10% off because I complained about the pitcher drying up I'm such a haggler. (sarcasm) I'm really not meaning I'd end up paying more for something.

For reference, the picture is taken from the same side. The new pitcher you can see growing in the center is the biggest pitcher on the bottom right with the really distinct red veins against the green hood.

Wow!
Alot more red and veining now!

Great work!

sun makes everything better

got mine from lowes too i separated two plants into five when i got them

Purpurea needs dormancy. Just saying. I hate terrariums for CPs. Sorry.

Its not in a terrarium.

Just an updated picture. 21 Jan 2012

Wow! It has massive pitchers now and its colouring up nicely. Well done!

here is what mine looked like when I got it two months ago.

here is what it looks like now.

should I seperate it?

Hegory, i would leave it as it is, they don't mind a bit of clumping.
JwBates, that Purpurea looks absolutley beautiful! The colour on it is amazing! You really should have seen my face when i saw it!

Great Work!!!

mine seems to be mainly red, though I wish it could be more purple, and the pitchers are pretty small, maybe tansplanting it would help... or it is just a younger plant. What potting medium do you have yours in?

Pure long fiber Sphagnum.

mine is in mainly peat moss. maybe i should transplant it? how do you get yours to grow so fast?

Thats absolutely amazing. The coloring is some of the best i've seen. Nice job Jason! Is it still indoors? if so, what type of light is it under?
