Sarracenia flava x leucophylla
S. flava x leucophylla represents the backbone of the many complex hybrids sought after by collectors because of its vigor, size, and range of colors.. This hybrid was made with the typical forms of S. flava and S. leucophylla to give you a typical form of the hybrid. It's appearance is similar to Leah Wilkerson, but shorter and less stout. Nonetheless, it still has a very striking appearance for being "typical".

Height: Up to 18 inches.
Sunlight: Full sun during the growing season.
Water: Low-mineral water (50 ppm or less).

Sarracenia flava
This plant is doing much better that the flytrap. Unfortunately I have an over zealous squirrel that has tried to plant or delve into the soil and has tipped it over several times. I have the plants together on my front porch where I can keep an eye on them and see if the pest is around. The S. flavor is growing nicely and looks healthy. Thanks for your support,
