How do you take care of sarracenia? I just got some sarracenia rhizomes with my vft for free and I dont know how to take care of them.

No it wont. They aren't monocarpic. Cut it off if you want large pitchers, leave it if you don't care.

Sarracenia flava flowers do a good impersonation of either wet cat or cat pee, depending on your sense of smell (seriously - it's overwhelming when 20-30 flowers are open at the same time).
