Pitcherplant from Ritterhude Saracenia pupurea?:
here is my pitcherplant. Not looking very well at present, but I hope, as the temperature rises, the plant will get better.


It might be the fact that the wintering temperature has been too high in combination with low light levels!!! And remember absolutely no nutrients or fertile soil to be added. Rain water is the best treatment. As the sun slowly returns you plant also will recover.
