Please Note: S. oreophila is currently listed on CITES Appendix I and is considered extremely endangered in its native habitat. It is not difficult to grow but care should be taken with regards to cultivation as these are all genetically different plants and loss of one is considered a loss to the species as a whole. Do your part and when it blooms cross pollination with a different seed grown Oreophila with the same data locations.

Sarracenia oreophila, also known as the green pitcherplant, is a carnivorous plant in the genus Sarracenia. It has highly modified leaves in the form of pitchers that act as pitfall traps for prey. The narrow pitcher leaves are tapered tubes that rise up to 75 centimetres from the ground, with a mouth 6 to 10 centimetres in circumference. Like all the Sarracenia, it is native to the New World. Sarracenia oreophila is the most endangered of all Sarracenia species, its range limited to a handful of sites in northern Alabama, North Carolina, Georgia, and—historically--Tennessee.

In spring this strains pitchers come up bright green and by the end of summer pitchers have turned golden with red veins.
