"This notable cultivar was distinguished from its siblings by having
enormous early season pitchers, particularly when its flowers are
removed at an early stage. While similar to other
[Sarracenia catesbaei {Elliott}] crosses using similar varieties of
the two parent species, this individual stood out by attaining pitcher
heights as great as 80 cm (30 inches). Only one or two spring and
early summer pitchers of this enormous size are produced, and the
pitchers that follow later in the season are only about half this
size. Also notable is the oversized, wavy and undulating lid that can
effectively reduce collected rainfall and thus lessen the toppling
nature that plagues [Sarracenia catesbaei {Elliott}]. The pitcher
body is olive-green with red longitudinal veins both straight and
jagged, plus lesser horizontal veins joining those that run lengthwise
along the pitcher. The ala is pronounced along the lower half of the
pitcher and edged in red. The red lip of the mouth is held
horizontally. A prominent red splotch at the throat radiates red veins
throughout the yellow-green lid. The flowers are large-petaled and
peach pink on the exterior surface, beige on the inner surface."

"In general form, the plant produces large pitchers much like those of
[Sarracenia flava {L.}]. The influence of [Sarracenia leucophylla {Raf.}]
is expressed, at most, as a slight undulation in the pitcher lid. While
[Sarracenia flava {L.}] controls the pitcher form,
[Sarracenia leucophylla {Raf.}] influences much of the pitcher
coloration. The pitcher lid is arrestingly white, shot through with deep
red veins (from [Sarracenia flava {L.}]). The upper pitcher tube is also
heavily veined and lightly fenestrated. These pitcher characters define
this exquisite cultivar. The flowers are not as spectacular as the
pitchers, but are still intriguing. The petals are light pink, almost
white, but may show occasional yellow highlights."

tilts slightly upward from the horizontal and the pitcher opening tilts
slightly downward from the horizontal. This feature gives [Sarracenia

"the first plant that was bred and selected to be easy to grow for
consumers, and suitable for pot plant production by commercial growers.
This variety earned its patented status for its unique horticultural
characteristics. It grows vigorously, year around, in a compact shape,
about 25 cm (10 inches) tall. This is in contrast to many wild species,
which turn brown in the fall and go dormant. A flaring hood reflexes over
the top of the hollow tube leaf. While ornamental, it is also a practical
feature as it prevents leaf collapse when water or rain hits the plant
from above.
[Sarracenia ' Cobra Nest ' {Booman}]is slightly more resistant to leaf
edge browning from salt or fertilizer burn when compared to many wild
species. Leaf traps open green, then turn red and maroon as they mature.
The plant branches very freely, which gives it a full thick appearance,
much appreciated by customers. Flowers are large with pink pendant
petals, and white sepals, appearing after one year, in the summer."

"[Sarracenia ' Cronus ' {R.Sacilotto}] was selected from numerous
seedlings resulting from crossing plants originally from Seminole
Co., FL with plants originally from Baldwin Co., AL. I performed this
pollination during May 1981 in Greene County, Virginia. By crossing
from two different population areas, I hoped to achieve some plants
with increased vigor. Reemay(R) bags were used to regulate
pollination. In November of 1985, the largest of the seedlings from
the above breeding was named [Sarracenia ' Cronus ' {R.Sacilotto}]
for its unusually large size and vigorous growth.
[Sarracenia ' Cronus' {R.Sacilotto}] has produced fall pitchers over
96.5 cm (38 inches) tall. The mouth typically is 6-9 cm (2 1/2-3 1/2
inches) across. The upper pitcher shows more white than many forms of
[Sarracenia leucophylla {Raf.}], with deep red veins dividing the
white background. The rim of the mouth is white, with reddish
marbling. Because the lid is adequately large and angled over the
mouth, rain is less likely to damage the pitchers than it may with
many open mouthed forms of Sarracenia. Despite the very dramatic
pitchers, the flowers are not significantly different from the wild
forms, being medium red and about 6.3-7.6 cm (2 1/2-3 inches) across
and in height (sepal to distal tip of petal). The flower stem is a
bit shorter than normal, typically reaching 25--36 cm (10-14 inches).
We have observed that this plant is not a good seed producer (often,
few or no seeds form in the pods).
We have observed this cultivar to grow faster than most other
[Sarracenia {L.}], when shifting from tissue culture (flasks or test
tubes) to marketable size (approximately a 3.8 liter (one gallon)
pot). Due to quick size increase, it is recommended that
[Sarracenia ' Cronus ' {R.Sacilotto}] be planted in containers or
gardens at least 30 cm (12 inches) deep and spaced at least 41 cm (16
inches) from other plants. In plantings with other
[Sarracenia leucophylla {Raf.}] types (sic!),
[Sarracenia ' Cronus ' {R.Sacilotto}] has consistently grown larger
than these other types, in identical situations. As with most
[Sarracenia leucophylla {Raf.}], the largest and showiest pitchers
are produced in late summer to fall."

was vastly superior to all others and seemed to possess every
quality for which I could have hoped, and subsequent trial has
proved it to have an excellent constitution. The upper pitcher and
hood are at first pleasantly marbled in light green, later becoming
tinted with coppery chestnut with darker veins, and they have the
advantage over most upright-pitchered kinds in that they often
open when the plant is still in flower. They are well shown in the
illustration, as are the abundantly produced , large, deep red
flowers. These are of outstanding quality, borne on long straight

"[Sarracenia ' Dixie Lace ' {Mellichamp & Gardner}] is a distinctive plant.
It quickly grows into a multi-crowned clump and flowers freely. Its sturdy
pitchers are produced throughout the growing season. Many pitchers survive
well into the winter, even after severe cold (down to -7degC or 20degF).
The plant has survived temperatures of -18degC (0degF). However,
protection from prolonged cold allows the plant to remain attractive
throughout the winter. flowering occurs at mid-season, and the red flowers
are similar to those of the parents. [Sarracenia ' Dixie Lace '
{Mellichamp & Gardner}] has been grown in full sun outdoors in beds and in
pots in a medium of peat:coarse silica sand (1:1). The pitchers are about
25 cm (10 inches) tall, and are poised erect to slightly arching outwards.
The hood shows the [Sarracenia psittacina {Michx.}] character of being
squared-off at the front and tightly closed when the pitcherts first
elongate. Later, the hoods of most pitchers flatten and form an opening
underneath a strongly rounded hood with laterally flared sides. The
pitcher tube gradually enlarges to more than 4 cm (1.5 inches) wide below
the hood. The surface of the pitcher tube is rich maroon with many white
spots between strong dark red veins. The hood has a yellowish-green
background with a very strong pattern of large primary and smaller
secondary veins - in strong light the hood becomes golden toned. White
spots on the hood may be absent or occur in patches. In summary, the erect
pitchers with squared-off hood fronts, the very strong pattern of dark red
veins, and the two-tone appearance of the upper-pitcher/hood combination
are distinguishing features of this hybrid selection. (...)
Since the pitchers vary in the detail of color and form of the hood over
the growing season and under different amounts of light, we feel this
cultivar offers a great charm that teases the imagination in trying to
describe its subtle nuances of character."

"Pollination was controlled using Reemay(R) bags to prevent random
outcrossing. The seed was germinated in the George Mason University
greenhouse, Fairfax County, VA, in late December of 1977. These
seedlings were not given a dormancy until worthy seedlings were
identified in 1979, 1980 and 1982. I am evaluating other plants from
this breeding and hope to register additional selections in the
future.
At an early age, this hybrid displayed many desirable qualities in
the pitchers, and was selected for further evaluation and retention
in my collection. As the plant matured, its features became more
apparent, and the first flowers appeared in 1983.
The pitchers are usually 15.2-25.4 cm (6-10 inches) tall, with a
ruffled lid. The lower half of the pitchers are green with red veins.
The upper portion is mostly white, with deep maroon veins. The lip is
usually deep maroon. A maroon flushing, on the inner ala and lid, is
most intense near the mouth, and fades to white with red veins toward
the distal portion of the inner lid. Red pigments are most vibrant in
mid to late summer. The widest point of the pitcher, excluding the
lid, typically ranges about 2.5-4 cm (1-1 1/2 inches).
[Sarracenia ' Fireworks ' {R.Sacilotto}] performs well in the garden
by producing many pitchers throughout the growing season. The lid is
angled to assist in keeping rain out of the pitchers. Flower color is
a deep burgundy red, without noticeable odor. These appear above
developing foliage on strong stems, averaging 31-36 cm (12-14 inches)
tall. The influence of
[Sarracenia rubra {Walt.} subsp.jonesii {(Wherry) Wherry}] is
apparent not only in the flower color, but in the growth habit of
making many crowns in a short time. The many crowns, or "leads,"
create a foundation for a beautifully lush display of flowers and
pitchers. Pitchers and flowers often appear simultaneously,
especially on established plants. Phyllodia (flat leaves) are rarely
produced."

"Since having raised this plant under different conditions (both natural
and artificial) for over twelve years, I can attest to not only its
adaptability and robustness, but also its spectacular beauty especially in
the late summer and fall when prime leaf pitcher production occurs. Under
optimum environmental factors such as proper hydrology, soil composition,
and sunlight, it reproduces vegetatively well and produces an abundance of
seed even when selfed. (While seed production is a good way to raise a
large number of [Sarracenia {L.}] that have many characteristics of this
cultivar, in order to maintain this cultivar's unique hardiness, color, and
size characters, vegetative propagation is required.) It has shown an
apparent strong resistance to disease and infection by both fungus or
bacteria as evident by the absence of any documented mortality in any of
the specimens over the twelve year period I have carried them. In brief, it
is a superb specimen for growing by anyone who likes an attractive and
dependable [Sarracenia {L.}].
It is important to reiterate that this very white
[Sarracenia leucophylla {Raf.}] cultivar is not anthocyanin-free. When one
sees this cultivar for the first time, it is easy to mistake it for the
anthocyanin-free form often sought after by many carnivorous plant
admirers. Mature late summer leaves are a bright white with no visible red
venation. The basal crowns are red, but require close inspection to see
this feature. Only if there is some type of damage to the leaf pitcher will
a red infusion around this injury be visible. The leaf production in spring
varies from a few nice leaves to occasionally none at all, especially if
there is heavy flower production."

"Davis is in the central valley of California, and experiences long,
hot, dry summers. Each year in October, the Botanical Conservatory
at the University of California in Davis (UCD) participates in an
enormous plant sale. On the day of the annual sale, the
[Sarracenia {L.}] are always a little toasted - shoppers eschew grand
[Sarracenia flava {L.}] specimens, just because the pitchers tops
are burnt and brown. However, one hybrid plant still looks fresh even
this late in the season. We call it [Sarracenia ' Imhotep '
{B.Meyers-Rice}]. Of uncertain ancestry, [Sarracenia ' Imhotep '
{B.Meyers-Rice}] has clear influences from [Sarracenia minor {Walt.}]
(i.e. a bulging but cylindrical pitcher, a round lid, and fenestrations
on the back of the upper third of the pitcher tube).
An overall coppery colour, manifested late in the
season, is probably also due to [Sarracenia minor {Walt.}] ancestry.
The other parent is uncertain, but may be either
[Sarracenia alata {(Wood) Wood}] or [Sarracenia rubra {Walt.}]. I
suspect it is probably [Sarracenia alata {Wood) Wood}] - the large
size, enhanced vertical pitcher veining, and pale greenish petals are
all consistent with this. It is probable that this plant arrived at
UCD via trades with California State University at Fullerton.
I will be the first to admit that more attractive [Sarracenia {L.}]
hybrids have been developed, yet this plant has excellent features.
Its ability to persist well into a hot, arid summer is noteworthy. It
is a marvelous plant for casual growers who wish to have perhaps just
one pitcher plant in their garden, and would like it to look good all
season long."

exhibit deep red color throughout, and venation that tends towards golden
yellow on and around the hood. This results in a striking effect when seen

"(...) out of many seedlings, the most purple and stiffly erect specimen was
selected.
The pitchers of [Sarracenia ' Katerina ' {M.Studnicka}] are erect, around
60 cm high (24 inches, including the lid), with a mouth 5.5 cm (2 inches)
wide. With the exception of the base, mature pitchers are entirely puirple
with red venation. The venation is particularly apparent in young pitchers.
Mature pitchers have a spectacular appearance because of the translucent
tissues.
In general form and habit, the pitcher lids are very similar to those of
[Sarracenia leucophylla {Raf.}]. The sinuous (but undivided) margins of the
lids are particularly ornamental. The lid's upper surface is densely hispid
with very short (0.1 mm) purple hairs, and it is therefore velvety. The
lower lid surface is glossy, covered with 2.2-2.5 mm long deflexed
transparent bristles. The pitcher tube is externally only scarcely pilose.
The spring pitchers and summer pitchers (which last over the winter) are
very similar; the primary difference being that the spring pitchers have
somewhat more green on the basal part of the pitchers. The rhizome is
horizontal, like in [Sarracenia leucophylla {Raf.}]. Flowers are purple,
intermediate between those of [Sarracenia purpurea {L.}] and
[Sarracenia leucophylla {Raf.}]. The peduncles are long, like in
[Sarracenia leucophylla {Raf.}]."

"The pitchers are 35 cm (14 inches) tall, or more. They are stiffly erect
with a very slight outward curve, and are completely hairless on the outer
surface. The upper 1/3 of the pitcher gradually enlarges and bears a
slightly arching hood with a gaping mouth (orifice). The opening of the
orifice can be up to 3 cm (1.25 inches) wide. the hood is 3-4 cm (1-1.5
inches) long and 5-6 cm (2-2.5 inches) wide with a distinct ruffle along
the edge, reminiscent of the [Sarracenia leucophylla {Raf.}] parent. Stiff
hairs to 1 mm long are inside the hood. The modest size of the pitchers
comes from the [Sarracenia rubra {Walt.}] parent. The small red flowers
are also very much like [Sarracenia rubra {Walt.}]. Characteristic of the
[Sarracenia psittacina {Michx.}] parent, the back of the hood and upper
pitcher have prominent irregular white spots, and the pitcher's interior
is profusely lined with long hairs to 2 mm long. You can see this hybrid
exhibits characteristics of its three parents.
The coloration of the pitchers is remarkably beautiful. The green of the
lower pitcher gradually gives way to a uniform rich maroon-red in the
upper half and hood. The enlarged upper pitcher and hood are marked with
distinct white spots. The larte-summer pitchers in (the standard) were
grown in full sun all day long and are especially well colored. The
pitchers retain their color well into the fall, but turn brown in winter,
whether exposed to freezing temperatures or not.
This clone survives temperatures as low as -18degC (0degF) with no adverse
effects as long as the roots are not exposed to drying. Pitchers are
produced all season - an advantage over the seasonal pitcher production of
the [Sarracenia leucophylla {Raf.}] parent.
Taking a cue from [Sarracenia leucophylla {Raf.}] genes, however, the best
and largest pitchers are exhibited in late summer and fall. There are no
phyllodia. The plant as a whole is thin-textured but sturdy, holding up to
rain and wind."

"This plant has narrow, upright trumpets 30-45 cm (12-18 inches)

green pitchers are heavily veined with dark red nerves; when grown in
full sun, the upper two-thirds of each pitcher, including the lid,
turn entirely reddish-maroon with especially dark veins (unlike the
individual in the photograph). The back of the pitcher throat, and
underside of the lid, can turn dark purple-burgundy. This cultivar is
especially notable for the upper inclination of the lid, which is
wider and longer than the mouth opening. The lid has slightly wavy
margins and fine bristles on the underside. The pitchers are notable
for lasting well into the winter dormant season in good condition. The
flowers are small, with dark red 2.5-3.5 cm (1-1.5 inch) petals,
similar to [Sarracenia rubra {Walt.}], and are borne on stems as long
as the pitchers. The flowers are slightly fragrant, similar to cherry
flavored drinks or roses."

"The pitcher shape is very much your basic [Sarracenia areolata {Macf.}]

[Sarracenia leucophylla {Raf.}] giving influence in the slight waviness in
the pitcher lid. However, it is the colouration of this particular hybrid
that I believe warrants its cultivar status.
The lower half of the pitcher is a fresh green colour, similar to that of
the [Sarracenia alata {(Wood) Wood}] parent. However it is halfway up the
pitcher when this plant stands out from the rest of the other
[Sarracenia areolata {Macf.}] hybrids!
The outer pitcher seems to be a pale cream/white colour, overlapped lightly
in a light pale green marbling, then pencilled with its deep maroon veins.
The lip of the pitcher opening is a pale creamy white colour, with just a
hint of the faintest green.
Inside the pitcher opening one can see light areoiles between the maroon
veins, again another inherited trait from its
[Sarracenia leucophylla {Raf.}] parent.
From the pictures shown on the right (p.31), these areoles or windows are
clearly visible in between the maroon veining on the upper part of the
pitcher walls. Also shown in the pictures are the creamy-white lips with

"Unlike most [Sarracenia moorei {Hort.Veitch ex Mast.}] crosses, it
displays unbelievable hybrid vigor. The original genet measured over
two meters (six feet) across with more than fifty pitchers; the tallest
of these measured 130 cm (50 inches) tall, while the heights of the
majority of the other pitchers measured between 86-97 cm (34-38 inches).
The average lateral measurement of the hood was 17 cm (6.5 inches).
In addition to its gigantic proportions, this hybrid is outstanding
because of its stunning coloration. The lower three quarters of the
pitchers are lime green, and the pitcher tops are lemon yellow with
large areoles and light red veining. The ala is lined in red. The
nectar roll is pronounced, undulated and mottled with red; this
pigmentation becomes more solid near the column, and forms a throat
blotch typical of the S. flava var. rugelii parentage. The lid is
particularly colorful with an overall pale yellow color (verging on
white) with regularly spaced strong red veining throughout. From a
distance the lid takes on a peachy golden cast. The edge of the lid is
edged in red and ruffled, typical of the [Sarracenia leucophylla
{Raf.}]parent.
This hybrid produces most of its pitchers in the spring - obviously an
influence from the [Sarracenia flava {L.}] in its ancestry. In
cultivation, these spring pitchers regularly reach 86-91 cm
(34-36 inches) in height. A second flush of pitchers is also produced
in the fall, and as in S. leucophylla, these pitchers are even larger,
measuring up to 96 cm (38 inches) tall."

"[Sarracenia ' Melissa Mazur ' {P.Wilson}] has pitchers with no visible
veining either inside or outside. When newly opened, the pitchers are
coloured a beautifully delicate shade of coral pink. Later, as the
pitchers age the pink colour fades to a more overall green colour with
whitish and sometimes pinkish areas. During the cold winter months
darker pink patches sometimes appear on the pitchers. The pitchers are
mostly retained through the winter in all but the coldest climates.
The flowers are especially beautiful. The petals are a very delicate
shade of pale pink and are unscented."

"This large, robust plant was collected in the wild in southeastern
Mississippi in 1985 by Mr. J.C.Moore, Sr. of Mobile, Alabama and
sent to Larry Mellichamp at UNCC. We have named the cultivar after
the musically talented collector who has been very instrumental in
discovering unusual pitcher plants in the Mobile area. The plant
appears to be a hybrid between [Sarracenia alata {Wood}] and
[Sarracenia purpurea {L.} subsp.venosa {(Raf.) Wherry}]
(undoubtedly the "Louis Burk" pink-flowered form ([Sarracenia
purpurea {L.} subsp.venosa {(Raf.) Wherry} var.burkii {Schnell}])),
both of which grow in the vicinity but do not hybridize commonly.
Stout, firm-textured pitchers about 6-9" high are produced
throughout the growing season. They taper gradually from bottom to
top to produce a broad cone with very wide slightly wavy-margined
erect hoods. As the pitchers grow and mature they show various
colors. The colors are intricate and subtle, yet rich and
interesting with predominately maroons and oranges as a background
for dark red veins. There are no aereolae (sic!) (or light windows)
evident as there would be if [Sarracenia leucophylla {Raf.}] were
involved in the hybrid. The flower is also very large and
attractive, somewhat orange-pink in color. We have already used
this cultivar in cross-pollination with other attractive specimens.
The most important feature of this hybrid is the fact that the
pitchers remain fully intact and colorful throughout the winter in
an unheated greenhouse where temperatures occasionally go just below
freezing. Since most Sarracenias die down in winter, we believe
this is an interesting characteristic to use in breeding plants that
look good year around. So far the plant appears vigorous, and it
looks like it is going to become even larger."

"I sought to offer a [Sarracenia {L.}] that would exhibit the best of the
genus by having a striking combination of vivid colors, as well as being
a plant that would grow rapidly, perform well in shade or bright sun,
tolerate soil moisture levels ranging from very wet to almost dry,
maintain a compact form for easier and less destructive transport, and
have an abundance of firm, long lasting, and intriguingly shaped pitchers.
I was able to develop this showstopper by combining [Sarracenia
leucophylla {Raf.}] and [Sarracenia psittacina {Michx.}] parents that
fully met my design criteria. Only the single best plant from the progeny
was selected for tissue culture replication.
[Sarracenia leucophylla {Raf.}] is noted as one of the best species of
the genus for coloration and form. It has two pitchering seasons, and
grows well in wet or semi-dry open savannas. Unfortunately for my target
goal, it is a rather tall species, and mature plants only produce a few
pitchers at a time. Its counterpart for this pairing, [Sarracenia
psittacina {Michx.}], is a colorful low-growing rosette that prefers wet
to soggy habitats. While [Sarracenia psittacina {Michx.}] plants can be
found naturally in open locations, they seem to be more at home and are
typically found in shady areas under shrubs or between tall grasses. One
very desirable feature of this species is its propensity to produce an
abundant quantity of pitchers that retain their color during the normal
winter dormancy period.
[Sarracenia wrigleyana {Hort.S.G.}] ([[Sarracenia leucophylla {Raf.}]
* [Sarracenia psittacina {Michx.}]]) is an uncommon, but naturally
occurring hybrid periodically found in Gulf Coast savanna bogs containing
both parent species. I believe that the majority of [Sarracenia
wrigleyana {Hort.S.G.}] plants result from crosses where the maternal
parent is [Sarracenia psittacina {Michx.}]. This is because [Sarracenia
{L.}] are protogynous, meaning the stigmas are mature and able to receive
pollen before the stamens release pollen. Because of this, a [Sarracenia
{L.}] flower is most likely to be pollinated by other flowers that
matured earlier in the season. This aspect also serves to minimize self-
pollination. Since [Sarracenia leucophylla {Raf.}] plants typically
flower four to six weeks earlier than [Sarracenia psittacina {Michx.}],
natural crosses between these two plants are more likely to involve a
slightly late-blooming [Sarracenia leucophylla {Raf.}] (pollen parent)
and a slightly early-blooming [Sarracenia psittacina {Michx.}] seed
parent. As further evidence for my theory, most of the wild [Sarracenia
wrigleyana {Hort.S.G.}] plants I have observed were near a group of
[Sarracenia psittacina {Michx.}] plants. I believe this indicates the
seeds germinated directly from or near the seed parent, i.e. [Sarracenia
psittacina {Michx.}].
I wondered what the characteristics of [Sarracenia wrigleyana
{Hort.S.G.}] would be look like if the parentage was reversed, i.e. if
a [Sarracenia leucophylla {Raf.}] was the seed parent. From a production
standpoint, [Sarracenia leucophylla {Raf.}] is a superior seed parent as
it produces considerably more seed in the capsule than its counterpart.
This aspect was important before the establishment of tissue culture
reproduction for [Sarracenia {L.}]. Seed was the only viable means at
that time to generate wholesale quantities of plants.
I removed pollen from a very compact and maroon colored [Sarracenia
psittacina {Michx.}] and used it to pollinate a number of crimson red
[Sarracenia leucophylla {Raf.}] plants. Seed was harvested, cleaned,
refrigerated, and stratified for sowing the following year.
[Sarracenia ' Scarlet Belle ' {Hanrahan}] grows well in wet to semi-moist
standard [Sarracenia {L.}] mixes. Coloration is best under full sun, but
the plant tolerates and develops nice colors with lower light levels. It
maintains pitchers throughout the year with some degradation in the
winter months; growth spurts occur in the spring and late summer. It
differs from typical [Sarracenia wrigleyana {Hort.S.G.}] with its
intense scarlet red pitchers and vigorous habit that produces a profusion
of pitchers. The pitchers are up to 40 cm long, slightly conically
tapered, with the mouth turned toward the center of the plant; the mouth
opening is variable in aperture, from being totally closed to 5 cm wide
x 3 cm high on mature pitchers and flared triangular in shape; prominent
areoles descend decreasingly from the pitcher's mouth. All parts of the
flower perianth are deep burgundy red; the size is intermediate between
[Sarracenia leucophylla {Raf.}] and [Sarracenia psittacina {Michx.}].
Older pitchers can be removed to stimulate new growth and to maintain the
plant's esthetic balance."

anthocyanin-free. The plant is entirely anthocyanin-free, a roust grower,
and upright. The hood is convex with a rounded appearance. The pitcher
leaves are gently curving, and areolae are present on the rear upper third
of the pitcher leaf. Pitcher leaves are 20-30 cm (8-12 inches) or more in
height. The flower petals are green."

"Pitcher colour, size and shape are typical for this species. the
flower exhibits a proliferation of tepals (undifferentiated petals
and sepals) arranged in whorls. The outermost whorls of tepals
display less mutation than the innermost whorls. The innermost
whorls, which are normally represented by the style umbrella and
stamens, are highly mutated, often fused with separate ovaries and
have deeply incised v-shaped stigmatic clefts. The stigmatic lobe
is often missing or is found attached to reduced or modified tepals
which resemble filamentous stalks. The tepals are green in colour
at the base, gradually changing to a deep red/maroon and are
persistent throughout the growing season.

"[Sarracenia 'Tornado' {R.Sacilotto}] pitchers emerge green, flushed
with red and red veins and showing white and pink spots. The pitchers
quickly become nearly black-red, without the irregular coloration
problems found in many [Sarracenia alata {(Wood) Wood}] clones. The
upper one half to two thirds of each pitcher matures essentially all
black-red without noticeable contrasting venation. The dark red color
mixes with green in the lower section, then quickly becomes nearly
all green at the bottom of the leaf. Many pitchers are produced
throughout the season, each being somewhat flattened, along the front
to rear centerlines. This creates an oval cross section, near the
mouth. Mature pitcher height is about 61-66 cm (24-26 inches). A dark
red lid covers the wide, slightly pouched pitchers and inhibits rain
entry and breakage; this lid is usually reniform and can reach 9 cm
(3.5 inches) across on taller pitchers.
Flower petals are pink. However, only one flower has been observed so
far, due to several late-season frosts which damaged developing buds.
The one flower was not particularly noteworthy, but future flowers
will be examined to present a more detailed description."

"This plant's peculiar hybrid ancestry is [[[Sarracenia oreophila
{(Kearney) Wherry}] * [Sarracenia rubra {Walt.} subsp.jonesii
{(Wherry) Wherry}]] * [Sarracenia rubra {Walt.} subsp.alabamensis
{(Case & Case) Schnell}]]. The pitcher leaves are 30-40 cm (12-16
inches) tall, and are erect. The leaves are mostly green in overall
tone, and have light green venation on the outer surface of the
pitchers (see Front Cover). The venation is more prominent on the
inner pitcher surface, especially near the pitcher opening. The
pitcher lid is held close over the pitcher opening, and is weakly
undulate. The best leaf development is in the late summer and fall.
The flower petals are mostly bright crimson, but in areas can be
washed with cream color."

"Pitchers are upright and superficially similar to [Sarracenia
leucophylla {Raf.}] in shape, but proportionally broader in the
upper parts with an extremely large, wavy lid, and have a large,
wide-lipped and pointed mouth, withe the front lip of the mouth
turned down as much as 90¡. The lid can be twice as wide as the
pitcher mouth, and is held almost horizontally, although on initial
inspection it appears to be more upright due to the extremely frilly,
upturned edges to the lid; late-season pitchers can have a more
upright lid. Size-wise, pitchers are typically 35-45 cm high on
mature plants, with lids up to 8 cm wide, and the pitcher mouth up to
4 cm wide. There is a small, but prominent, wing to each pitcher; the
position of this wing can vary depending on whether the pitchers are
early or late-season, but generally occupies the "middle third" of
the pitcher, fading out and disappearing towards both the mouth and
the base of the pitcher. Late-season pitchers tend to be a bit more
stocky than early season ones, a trait it shares with its dominant
[Sarracenia leucophylla {Raf.}] parentage.
Colour-wise, they are initially similar to [Sarracenia leucophylla
{Raf.}], with the lid being virtually white with a network of green
and pink between the "windows" when they first open. In full sun,
this colour soon intensifies with the lid turning a vibrant red and a
bright pink colour suffusing the upper parts of the pitcher, spreading
into the white windows in the upper parts (see Fig.1). The whole
pitcher then gradually darkens to the darkest purple that you would
expect from a very dark [Sarracenia purpurea {L.}], with a few small
pink patches remaining scattered through the uppermost sections of the
pitcher tube and the lid (see Fig. 2). Very late-season pitchers often
do not colour up as much and can maintain their fresh green, white &
pink colour through the winter.
The plant has inherited the spring and autumn pitcher production of
its [Sarracenia leucophylla {Raf.}] parentage, but with some of the
vig
