The genus Darlingtonia contains only one species, Darlingtonia californica Torr. The name Cobra lily comes from its rounded head and fangs that have a cobra-like appearance. Like all carnivorous pitfall trap plants, this plant has no moving parts. However, it is marvellously effective. It attracts prey by its colourful leaves that emit a honey like scent. Prey land on the pitcher top or the fangs to feed on nectar. It is exuded in glistening abundance on the fangs, and as the insects forage they eventually crawl upwards towards the pitcher mouth. Since the pitcher top is set with countless glassy windows, light illuminates its interior and makes it so very appealing. Once insects enter the pitcher, they are in serious trouble because the escape route is hard to find. It can take temperatures down to 0*C and as high as 35*C.
On checkout you will be asked if you would like to add our carnivorous mix to your order.
