The tall trumpet-shaped pitchers often develop deep shades of crimson and burgundy, sometimes flushed with green and marked with intricate veining that gives the traps a fierce, almost mythical appearance. The broad hood arches over the opening of the pitcher, creating a sculptural form that stands out vividly in sunlight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"519\" data-end=\"913\"\u003eLike other North American pitcher plants, the tubular leaves function as specialized insect traps. Nectar and vivid coloration lure insects to the lip of the pitcher where they lose their footing and slip into the tube below. Digestive fluids within the pitcher break down the captured prey, providing nutrients that allow the plant to thrive in the nutrient-poor soils typical of bog habitats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"915\" data-end=\"1292\"\u003eThroughout the growing season, \u003cem data-start=\"946\" data-end=\"958\"\u003eSarracenia\u003c\/em\u003e ‘Dragon Queen’ forms an impressive clump of colorful pitchers rising above the mossy bog surface. Its intense coloration and vigorous growth make it a striking addition to carnivorous plant collections, outdoor bog gardens, and container bog planters. In early spring, graceful nodding flowers appear before the new pitchers develop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-section-id=\"e21a7f\" data-start=\"1294\" data-end=\"1316\"\u003eGrowing Conditions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-start=\"1318\" data-end=\"1606\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"qeub2v\" data-start=\"1318\" data-end=\"1341\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1320\" data-end=\"1341\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1320\" data-end=\"1330\"\u003eLight:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full sun\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"rmti6d\" data-start=\"1342\" data-end=\"1448\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1344\" data-end=\"1448\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1344\" data-end=\"1354\"\u003eWater:\u003c\/strong\u003e Constant moisture; keep soil wet with pure water (rainwater, distilled, or reverse osmosis)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"12dpt9y\" data-start=\"1449\" data-end=\"1504\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1451\" data-end=\"1504\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1451\" data-end=\"1460\"\u003eSoil:\u003c\/strong\u003e Acidic bog mix such as peat moss and sand\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1p1mjxa\" data-start=\"1505\" data-end=\"1548\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1507\" data-end=\"1548\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1507\" data-end=\"1521\"\u003eHardiness:\u003c\/strong\u003e Generally USDA Zones 6–9\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"7lqpj7\" data-start=\"1549\" data-end=\"1606\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1551\" data-end=\"1606\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1551\" data-end=\"1564\"\u003eDormancy:\u003c\/strong\u003e Requires winter dormancy in cooler months\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe registered cultivar, great grower! \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMedium\/large divisions available \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Plant Everything Carnivorous","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59185932959825,"sku":"sku-52015472607521","price":100.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0080\/4864\/0081\/files\/Dragon_Queen.jpg?v=1773193096","url":"https:\/\/gogardennow.com\/products\/sarracenia-dragon-queen","provider":"GoGardenNow","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
