Item Lore

This *Sarracenia* hybrid draws its hardiness from the *S. oreophila* mother plant, while the *S. alata* ‘Red Throat’ influence imparts a striking, deep pigmentation to the pitcher's interior. Collectors value these hybrids for combining the distinct architectural forms of their parents, showcasing the remarkable diversity possible within North American carnivorous flora.
