My plant was shipped quickly and arrived in perfect shape. I was honestly shocked at how good it looked and how well they it was packaged.
The term Feist Dog originates from the rural regions of the southern United States and refers to small, mixed-breed hunting dogs. We use that term at the nursery for any Sarracenia with unknown parentage, particularly those from open-field pollination. Many fine specimens that we have offered over the years have come from this sort of random pollination. Because they were first grown from seed, each one is a unique specimen. Each Feist Dog Sarracenia has a personality unique to its own!
Photos are for descriptive purposes. Size, shape, and color will vary considerably. All selection is done randomly.
