Sarracenia Will Waterbury

This plant came from a batch of open-pollinated seeds we gathered from S. Hank. We admired it for its delicate reddish orange shades alongside the pitchers. With its strong S. flava features, the plant has a very solemn and stately presence and became one we looked forward to seeing each spring when it produces its best pitchers. The colors fade slightly when summer heats up, but the pitchers still blend in nicely with other plants.

We named the plant after Jeff's co-worker who was a site supervisor for the Outdoor School in the Portland area. He was a very strong advocate of the natural sciences and preserving natural habitats.
