This is batch of seedlings were bred from two prized Sarracenia leucophylla cultivars, Schnell's Ghost and Hurricane Creek White (clone F). Both of these mother plants are known for their ruffled white hoods with thin green veins. In September, their late season pitchers are almost pure white with very little veining. This cross should produce some very nice pitchers in the years to come.

This was my first order from Sarracenia Northwest and I could not be happier with the quality of the plant that I received and the superb packaging job. The plant has settled in nicely and it’s first new pitchers since being shipped have begun to open and flourish!
The plant was shipped quickly and packaged amazingly, and when it first arrived it was in premium condition with a very healthy looking pitcher. I can't wait to see what this plant will do for me in the future!
