(5 reviews)

This plant is a compact and uniform hybrid featuring lots of traits from the white top pitcher, Sarracenia leucophylla. White Sparkler, however, is a shorter, stouter grower, expressing more pitchers and stronger color contrasts. It's a definite boon for growers looking for a compact, colorful plant with rewarding full growth. Its best pitchers appear in late summer and early fall.

Type of Plant: Outdoor perennial for container growing.
Height: Up to 16 inches.
Sunlight: Full sun during the growing season.
Water: Low-mineral water (50 ppm or less).
Soil: Equal parts peat moss and perlite only.
Winter: Dormant. Minimal protection in USDA zones 7-9. Mulch in colder regions.

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.

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.

    Arrived in good shape and already has a couple of new pitchers. It looks just like the pictures on your website and I'm really happy with it

    Grew 4 new pitchers since I got it. The one I received is all green with a red spot in the throat, however. Maybe they new pitchers will turn white during peak season :) Still a good looking plant!

    My Sarracenia looked exactly like the picture. Delivery was fast along with excellent customer service. I was looking to purchase more but it was already sold out.
