Hurricane Creek White is a name applied to the alba form of S. leucophylla that originated from Hurricane Creek in Alabama. It's considered an alba form, meaning it has very little red pigment. Various clones circulate in cultivation, such as clone F. In late season, pitchers are brilliant white with green veins.
