Sale
Sarracenia Don's Flava
$29.75 - $39.95
We obtained a specimen of this plant in the early 2000s from a fellow carnivorous plant enthusiast. While living in Seattle, he was able to grow this plant to 4 feet tall, and he had photos to prove it! We dubbed this plant Don's Flava because he labeled it as Sarracenia flava when he gave us a division of it. After growing the plant for a couple of seasons, we realized that it wasn't a true species at all. With a bit of research, we concluded that the plant was actually a hybrid, Sarracenia flava x oreophila, coming from a seed batch that also produced Doreen's Colossus and Extreme Green.
Overall, Don's Flava is a reliable grower, easy to divide, and simply one of the most rewarding plants we've ever had for sale. Pitchers are tall and vase-like, with narrow necks leading to upright, slightly undulated, pointed lids. The interior of the trap is lined with dark red veins, leading to a maroon throat blotch.

Healthy Hybrid
The plant arrived well packaged and in good shape (no damage at all). The plant was bigger then expected & is growing very fast. It arrived with two pitchers a little over a month ago now the 6th is coming up. Im satisfied with the purchase I will definitely order again in the future.
