I love my new pitcher plant!

I got my new Sarracenia yesterday and it is beautiful! I expected a small plant like the one pictured, with a half dozen pitchers, but what I received was a plant that is almost bursting out of it's pot with about 30 pitchers. It was also packaged very well, wrapped in plastic and in it's own, individual box with padding and a heat pack. When the other pitcher plants are back in stock I will be buying more.
