(25 Seed minimum per packet, open pollinated) An excellent Adrian Slack hybrid. Stocky in growth these lovely hybrid plants have rather unusual purple tinged pitchers with heavily veined hoods. Flowers are borne in spring. A good hardy hybrid. Like all Sarracenias they need to be kept in soft water in full sun and acidic nutrient-less soil for good growth, efficient fly wasp catchers they grow in full sun in moist or wet acidic nutrient-less soils. Keep well hydrated spring to autumn but keep just damp in winter. Needs a cold winter dormancy for long term plant health. Good flycatchers for a sunny window sill. Plants may be sent bare rooted.
