I am happy to combine postage for multiple plants at no extra cost, simply pay postage for the largest plant you buy, then be sure to select "collection in person" BEFORE paying, and I will then be able to send all your plants in one parcel.

I am an APHA registered seller, UK plant passport issued with every plant. 

Rarely offered for sale, this plant was selected by myself from a batch of seedlings grown from sarracena flava v. rugellii, “Blackwater” location seed. It immediately stood out from its siblings due to its light orange tint, compact habit and gently undulating lid. I believe it to be a natural hybrid, and its distinct colouration and slightly quirky appearance led me to choose the name “Brass Monkey”.

 

Grow in a cool greenhouse or sunny windowsill and water with rainwater. You are bidding on a division from the plant shown in the first photograph, the exact plant you will receive is shown in the second photograph. Your plant will be sent bare rooted ready for potting to reduce postage. 

IMPORTANT = please read before bidding !!! 

Older sarracenia pitchers commonly develop "indigestion" after catching large numbers of flies, this manifests as brown patches on the pitcher tube and sometimes leads to the death of the individual leaf, but it does not affect the overall health of the plant in any way.

Also, sarracenia have a winter rest period, so depending on the time of year, the plant you receive may have had some of last season’s traps trimmed back for dormancy. This is perfectly normal and does not affect the health of the plant, your plant will begin to grow again in the spring.

If you wish to bid on plants from this week's auctions, please drop me a line I will be happy to hold back your plant until you have completed all your bidding.

I have records of the growers from whom I obtained the parent plants of many of the plants I have on ebay which I am happy to supply on request if I know.

Grow in a compost mix of three parts Irish (sphagnum) moss peat, two parts pearlite and one part silver sand. Place the plant in a position of full sunlight, either on a cool windowsill or in a greenhouse. During the spring/summer growing season stand it in a try containing approximately one inch of rainwater, never use tap water as this is poisonous to all carnivorous plants. Never apply artificial fertilizer or feed with dead insects, the plant will catch enough to feed itself. In winter keep the compost damp rather than wet and allow the plant to rest, a cool but frost free position is best.
