What's your favorite Sarracenia and do you have it? If you do please post a picture.
I want to see some amazing looking plants that i might be interested in.

I just got my favorite that I wanted for a while. I'm sure I will be interested in a new one soon though as always.

Sarracenia Minor

Thanks

-Kyle

Mine is the Cobra Lily, I know its in it's own category Darlingtonia, but it still catches bugs the same as the others. I hear it's really hard to grow, so I haven't even thought about buying one yet.

Yep, I'm with nealfor...Sarracenia 'Hurricane Creek White' is awesome looking!

I had no idea how big 'Leah Wilkerson' got though. That's very impressive! I'll have to get my hands on one of those when I get settled out in Oregon.

Matt, when you are ready to get a 'Leah Wilkerson' I would recommend ordering directly from Brooks Garcia. I got a really nice division from him earlier this year. He is the person who introduced this cultivar. I believe the pic above is of Brooks plants.

I agree about acquiring them from Brooks, he sells plants on ebay from time to time, I am sure you can find him on there. But, they aren't cheap unfortunately.

Thanks for the tips Mary and Neal. Unfortunately I don't have a ton of money to spend on plants right now, so I might have to wait a while before I can order a 'Leah Wilkerson' from Brooks. Sarrs aren't my favorite plants either (can you guess what is?

), so I have an even harder time justifying spending a lot of money on them...

Beautiful plants so far. That 'Leah Wilkerson' is pretty large. And the color on the 'Hurricane Creek White' is amazing. And I do love darlingtonia. Keep the plants and pics coming.

I am ordering some S. Dixie Lace and S. Daina's Delight and i am fairly certain one of these beauties will become my favorite Sarr! I love my s. Purpurea though, it was a sickly little thing from the nursery but now it is an amazing plant with all-new HUGE pitchers! I am digging Sarrs alot now, they have grown on me more than i expected.

Pics to come soon, but my Daina's Delight is definitely in the running for my favorite Sarr!
