Sarracenia alata Red hood x oreophila

This is one of the most vigorous hybrids in our collection, made with two highly prolific plants. In spring, it produces green pitchers with light red veins. Later in the season, it produces pitchers that are much more vibrant, with brighter red veins. The insides of the pitchers also darken with red. On top of that, it clumps up very quickly. Nice!

Large clump

Posted by John Age 12 on March 18, 2015

Normally, I wouldn't review dormant plants, but I was so impressed by the size of this rhizome that I will make an exception. It looks quite healthy with green leaf bases, and it was so big that I divided it into a mixed planter with Sarracenia leucophylla 'Tarnok'.
