Question
I decided to repot my sarrcenia now and i cut off all the leaves because they all were dead looking.  Is that going to greatly affect the growth of my sarracenia.

Answer
Hi Howard,

Oh my yes it will!  You'll get nicer, healthier looking leaves this spring and summer.  We do it routinely in the nursery to the trumpet pitcher varieties.  Just don't cut off all the leaves on S. purpurea or S. psittacina.  Their leaves are more or less evergreen.


Good Growing!
