Sarracenia ‘Barba Green’ forms upright, tubular pitchers ranging from 12–20" tall. The pitchers are a vibrant, almost fluorescent green with smooth, lightly veined sides and a flared hood that shades the trap opening. This bold coloration remains consistent even in intense sun, making the plant a standout in any carnivorous collection. In mid to late spring, a solitary flower appears on a 16–24" stalk. The flower is chartreuse to yellow-green and nods downward, with five rounded petals and a distinct umbrella-like style.
