Another page from my Garden Journal. We bought these 2 Sarracenia (Trumpet Pitcher) plants last December from Mitre 10 in Beaconsfield during our summer and they did well in a sheltered spot under our bird bath. (Mitre 10 is mainly a hardware store but they do sell some interesting plants!). I sketched them from life over a period of several days April-June but only added the text today. They've now withered and are dormant over the winter. Going by the advice I read from a business that specializes in these plants, we have cut them back to within a couple of inches from the base. Hopefully when spring comes in September we will see them come back to life!
