For my birthday, I splurged and bought a Sarracenia x Cazadero Trail from Sarracenia Northwest:
From a seed batch of open-pollinated plants at our nursery, we quickly noticed the potential of this plant when it was a very young seedling. As a mature plant, it is quite remarkable. It features very striking dark veins that boldly stands out against a creamy yellow background. As the growing season progresses, the rim of the pitcher turns maroon. The plant also grows vigorously and forms large clumps relatively quickly.
A very pretty plant, looks like it could be an S. x moorei. Because of all the variability in the two parent species (flava and leucophylla), the appearance of these hybrids is all over the map. My plant arrived in a 4-inch pot, and I slip-potted it into a 5.5-inch for more room to expand. The tallest pitcher is 16 inches, supposed to top-out around 2 feet.
