Question I check out your care sheet for my sarracenia and i dont know what this word
mean (vibrant or sturdy)
Answer Hi Aaron,
That sentence is referring to how leaves (pitchers) will grow if they are in lower light. Vibrant is means colorful appearance. Sturdy means the stiffness of the pitchers. Sarracenia grown in lower light often have floppy pitchers, meaning they are not very sturdy.
