Sarracenia moorei

Owned by David Fefferman (@David).

Notes

Family: Sarraceniaceae. Sarracenia leucophylla is a temperate carnivorous plant that requires a distinct winter dormancy period to survive long-term. It must be grown in nutrient-poor, acidic substrate like a peat and perlite mix, and watered exclusively with mineral-free water such as rainwater or distilled water.

Item Lore

The *Sarracenia* 'Moorei' is a prized natural hybrid between *S. flava* and *S. leucophylla*, celebrated for combining the imposing stature of the former with the intricate, veil-like venation of the latter. Collectors value these hybrids for their vigor and the dramatic color shifts that occur as their pitchers mature throughout the growing season.
