Rehabilitating a Neglected Sarracenia leucophylla

Question: My aunt gave me a white-top pitcher plant grown indoors. Pitchers are crooked but new growth is straight. Soil is gravelly. Should I repot? Steps to nurse it back?

Answer

Hi Robert,

Yes, repot. Use 50/50 peat moss and perlite. Choose a pot with room to grow. After repotting, place outside in partial shade for 3 days, then move to full sun. Trim any burned leaves. With TLC, you should see nice fall pitchers. Care sheet: www.cobraplant.com/caresheets.

Good Growing!
