Bred in England in 1985, this plant quickly became a coveted classic. It has been widely regarded as one of the finest Sarracenia ever created for its uniform shape, moderate height, colorful pitchers, and steady growth throughout the growing season. The traps are stunning. Young leaves are green streaked with red and heavily speckled with white around the top. The pitchers quickly convert to the deepest berry-red, leaving the top of the ruffled lid dotted with pink and white while the rest of the trap assumes darker complexions. Leaves are of medium height and growth is compact and uniform. Older plants are somewhat more robust, but are otherwise identical to younger ones. Its ease of growth and reliable nature makes Judith Hindle a prize in any collection.

2nd Season Divisions
After dividing our mother plants in spring, we grow the divisions for a year before releasing them. You get a more vigorous plant with a healthier root system when compared to a recent division.
All outdoor perennials experience seasonal changes at our nursery in Oregon.
• January-March: Plant is dormant with no pitchers.
• April: Spring growth will appear by the end of the month.
• May: Fully developed pitchers will gradually appear.
• June-August: Full display of pitchers.
• September: Plant produces its best pitchers of the season.
• October: Dormancy begins. Fewer pitchers. No new growth until spring.
• November-December: Plant is dormant. Browned pitchers are cut off.
the plant is carefully packed and in good condition with very vibrant colors on the pitchers. Upon arrival, the plant is approximately 5 inches in height. It grew numerous new pitchers over the past month and captured countless flying insects that I don't know the name of. And I'm very satisfied with this purchase.
The plant I purchased was packaged very well, was the correct item, and arrived in a timely manner. The only reason I gave this plant a 4/5 is the plant that was sent was very small.
As usual, plant purchased from SNW arrived in great shape given the careful packaging and expedited shipping. Plants are doing well and happily growing.
Initial pitched was damaged but plant is healthy.
I received my plant in great condition within their set time of two day shipping. It's now happily potted and has already started showing signs of new growth. I'm very pleased with my sarracenia I will definitely order again.
When I first received this plant, I was like, "where the heck is the plant?!?!" In all honesty I am new to carnivorous plants, and this was my first time ordering Sarracenia, lol. After about a week the plant just really took off and is a strong grower!! I absolutely love the plant and can't wait to see it mature to its fullest potential. Thank you so much!
The shipment came quickly and packaged appropriately for the journey. The plants are healthy and instantly started growing after a little exposure to sun and water. Included instructions are perfect. Will definitely buy more in the future...thanks!!
