Sarracenia ‘Leah Wilkerson’ x (oreophila x flava)
This gorgeous flava-type hybrid includes lots of the genetics of “Leah Wilkerson”, in that it has huge flaring mouths, a deep, red throat, prominent bright red venation, a large frontal mid rib, and huge overhanging cap. Trap mouths can exceed 2-1/2” on mature specimens!
WYSIWYG--you'll receive the exact plant shown, a huge, healthy specimen, ready for your bog garden, porch, or home. Sarracenias (native North American Pitcher Plants) are amazing carnivores, luring and capturing hundreds of insects over the course of their long growing season. These perennials are hardy in many parts of the country (see our growing instructions for specifics for your zone.) Grow these beauties in full, bright sun with their feet constantly wet (we grow them submurged within 1-1/2 inches of the top of the pot, always in rainwater or distilled water, never tap!) Grown outdoors in suitable weather, they'll capture plenty of wasps, flies, and other insects to supplement their nutritional needs, so never fertilize them, and they'll be super-happy, coming back bigger and better season after season!
Larger Sarracenias are shipped bare-root, carefully packaged, unless otherwise requested. This greatly reduced shipping cost, and plants tend to travel better and adapt, just as quickly when shipped this way.
