Product Information
We do our best to ensure product descriptions, specifications, care information and other details are accurate and up to date. Information is provided as a general guide and may vary between batches, suppliers, individual plants or product revisions.

Stock availability
Website stock levels update live from our inventory system, but occasional discrepancies can occur due to in-store sales, damage or stock adjustments. This is more likely when only 1 or 2 units are showing as available.

Product images
Images are provided as a visual guide and may not show the exact individual item for sale. Plants can naturally vary in size, fullness, colour, shape and stage of growth, and images may show a mature specimen to demonstrate how a younger plant may develop.

Images are either owned by Kambarang Garden Centre, used under an appropriate licence or with permission, or created with AI assistance. AI imagery is used to improve the background of existing photos, and to provide representative images where a suitable real-world photo is difficult or impractical to obtain, particularly for mature plants. Special care is taken to preserve the genuine appearance, colour, form, foliage, flowers and growth habit as accurately as current AI image technology allows.

Plant sizing
Plant sizes refer to the pot size, not the exact size of the plant. For example:

  • 100 mm = 10 cm diameter pot
  • 140 mm = 14 cm diameter pot
  • 5 L = 5 litre pot

Smaller pot sizes generally indicate younger plants, although actual plant size can vary significantly between species, varieties and growth habits.

Description

Sarracenia flava var. flava is the classic Yellow Pitcher Plant, forming an upright clump of tall, trumpet-shaped traps. The pitchers are usually yellow-green with a red throat patch and fine red veining around the flared, hooded opening. Insects drawn to the nectar-lined rim slip inside and provide the plant with nutrients. Nodding yellow flowers may appear before the fresh pitchers as growth resumes in Djilba–Kambarang (Spring), creating an intriguing feature for a sunny patio, specialist collection or container bog garden. Grow it outdoors in full sun, with some shelter from Perth’s fiercest dry afternoon heat if the pot becomes very hot. Use an acidic, nutrient-poor carnivorous plant mix and stand the pot in 2–5 cm of rainwater, distilled water or reverse-osmosis water while actively growing. Never use ordinary potting mix or fertiliser, and avoid mineral-rich tap water. During Djeran (Autumn) and Makuru (Winter), allow its natural dormancy, keeping the mix moist rather than deeply flooded and trimming away pitchers only once they have browned.
Height 50–90 cm
Width 45–90 cm per mature clump; slowly expands through rhizomes
