Sarracenia flava

Owned by Aaaamory (@aaaamory).

Notes

Sarracenia Northwest's Founder's Plant, a name they call it on their catalog. A plant that has been in the nursery since they started. Grows only 14" tall. Got it as a mystery rhizome but it is very clearly this plant because of its size and the little curly horn. It is not a variety maxima, it has a red cutthroat and other faint red markings.
