Sarracenia flava var. rubricorpora is a carnivorous plant that grows in the marshy areas of the coastal plain of the southeastern United States, North Carolina and from Alabama to Virginia.
The traps have a very solid structure and start out slim and then open into a very wide mouth.
The color of the leaves is red, especially in the upper part of the trap, only the cap is not completely red but has yellow veins. Often the lip is also yellow.
Lots of flava var. rubricorpora have a black patch inside the throat.
When repotted, it struggles to color in the first year of growth.
It is certainly one of the largest of the Sarracenia genus, reaching heights between 60 and 90 cm.
The flower has very large yellow petals.
The most beautiful traps are produced in spring while during the summer it mainly produces phyllodia which are flat and non-carnivorous leaves with the sole purpose of increasing photosynthesis especially in winter when the traps full of insects will have fallen.
