Re: Sarracenia Sunlight Requirement
Direct sunlight is best, but I find that leucophylla grows best with only about 5-7 hours hours of direct sunlight instead of the whole day being exposed to sunlight. Before that, mine received sunlight from 9am-6pm. When I moved it to an area receiving less sunlight time, pitchers were taller and just as colourful as before. This is just my case.

Re: Sarracenia Sunlight Requirement
Generally as much direct light as possible but it is just as important to maintain high humidity. Shouldn't be such a problem for you but make sure the plants don't dry out.
