{"product_id":"copper-top-pitcher-plant-72-cell-plug-tray","title":"Copper Top Pitcher Plant - 72-Cell Plug Tray","description":"\u003cp\u003eCopper Top is an upright yellow pitcher plant with a warm amber-copper blush on the hood and neck of every pitcher. It is especially vigorous for a carnivorous plant and builds into a sturdy clump.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn spring, before the pitchers appear, it opens side-facing chartreuse-yellow flowers. It is a strong choice for a sunny bog garden, pond edge or wet container, and a natural starting point for anyone new to pitcher plants.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat it looks like\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTall, upright, trumpet-shaped pitchers 18 to 20 inches tall, yellow-green along the tube and flaring to a broad, upright hood; the hood and the neck just below it are washed in amber-copper, sometimes with faint red veining in the throat. In spring, drooping, side-facing flowers about 3 inches across with long chartreuse-yellow petals appear on single stems before the pitchers. There are no ordinary leaves; the pitchers are the foliage. The plant forms an upright clump 18 to 20 inches wide. At its best it is a stand of yellow-green trumpets with glowing copper tops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eGrowing it with lavender\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePitcher plants need a constantly wet, acidic bog, the opposite of lavender's dry, lean ground, so give them their own bog garden, a lined container or the edge of a pond in full sun.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eGrow in full sun in a constantly wet, low-nutrient mix of peat moss and sand, such as a lined bog bed or a container sitting in a tray of water. Use rainwater or distilled water and never fertilize or use regular potting soil. Hardy in zones 5-9; trim away old, browned pitchers in early spring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sarracenia flava\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlower color:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chartreuse yellow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yellow-green with amber-copper hood and neck\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Upright clump of trumpet-shaped pitchers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMature size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18–20 in tall × 18–20 in wide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUSDA hardiness zones:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5–9\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight:\u003c\/strong\u003e full sun\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom start:\u003c\/strong\u003e Late-April\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePeak bloom:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mid-May\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom pattern:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single Flush\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDeer resistance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Resistant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePollinator value:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fair\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSizes and shipping\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne full 72-cell plug tray: 72 young starter plugs of this variety (cells about 1⅓ in. wide × 2½ in. deep), rooted and ready to pot up into quarts or gallons.
