Bred in England in 1985, this plant quickly became a coveted classic. It has been widely regarded as one of the finest Sarracenia ever created for its uniform shape, moderate height, colorful pitchers, and steady growth throughout the growing season. The traps are stunning. Young leaves are green streaked with red and heavily speckled with white around the top. The pitchers quickly convert to the deepest berry-red, leaving the top of the ruffled lid dotted with pink and white while the rest of the trap assumes darker complexions. Leaves are of medium height and growth is compact and uniform. Older plants are somewhat more robust, but are otherwise identical to younger ones. Its ease of growth and reliable nature makes Judith Hindle a prize in any collection.

2nd Season Divisions
After dividing our mother plants in spring, we grow the divisions for a year before releasing them. You get a more vigorous plant with a healthier root system when compared to a recent division.

All outdoor perennials experience seasonal changes at our nursery in Oregon.
• January-March: Plant is dormant with no pitchers.
• April: Spring growth will appear by the end of the month.
• May: Fully developed pitchers will gradually appear.
• June-August: Full display of pitchers.
• September: Plant produces its best pitchers of the season.
• October: Dormancy begins. Fewer pitchers. No new growth until spring.
• November-December: Plant is dormant. Browned pitchers are cut off.

    Sarracenia x Judith Hindle is awesome!

    Posted by Rose on May 31, 2020

    Mine arrived, very well protected/ packed. Shipping time-- surprising quick, considering the quarantine. Actually 2 dormant "plants" came--at this early time, ready to put out tentative growth. One, I planted inside in a glass container of coarse gravel, charcoal and distilled water; the other in a boggy area of my yard that hosts ferns, trillium, lady slipper and jack in the pulpit along it's edges. BOTH have done beautifully! Indoors, 2 pipes with more coming; outdoor 1 pipe and also babies coming. Thrilled with this purchase.

    This is the first pitcher plant I've ordered so far. After unpacking it I was simply stunned by its beautiful colors. Can't wait till it reaches its full size.

    Posted by John Thoeni on March 4, 2020

    This plant arrived in excellent condition and has really thrived. Several new pitchers have come up and all of them are filled to capacity with bugs. Very pleased with this plant.

    healthy, stands up on its own.

    Posted by Unknown on November 27, 2019

    I liked that this comes pre-potted. I have a hard time getting the Sarracenia to stand up when I buy ones that shipped in bare root or has a support ring. exciting to see that they are multi colored on each leaf.
