Hi people! I've bought this sarracenia at home depot and was wondering what it is. Any help is appreciated.

It's unlikely that anyone can provide a positive identification since many plants sold at stores are random crosses. Someone more familiar than me with sarracenia species could probably give some educated guesses though. Definitely a very healthy looking plant for a Home Depot find.

Your plants seen to be complex hybrid, you won't really be able to get a positive ID on them, however, I can say that there's definitely a bit of Leucophylla in there

I'm guessing, Sarracenia "Judith Hindle".

Nah his plant has been in a decent amount of sunlight for a while, it would have colored up much more

No idea but I would guess it has some S. leucophylla and/or S. rubra complex ancestors.

Thanks guys. I kind of think it's a judith hindle. I've read that they are slightly greener when they are young. Also this plant has been in the sun for around a week. I think I may post pictures later as it grows bigger, just to see if you guys can identify it

It's a random leuco complex hybrid, who knows what genes are in there, could be a 'Judith Hindle' (i doubt it) but if you are not sure which you obviously aren't, label it as a hybrid.

Cheers

What part of California do you live in, here in Southern Cali I can't find an HD that sells eaters only Lowe's sell them here (Los Angeles) I would really like to see what HD has as far as plants.

I live in the inland empire county. I find that wherever hd I go too , they always have something. You should try calling the store before going.
