Sarracenia ( x 'Randy Rable' ) x ( x 'Deep Throat' ) Potted
Sarracenia x 'Deep Throat' is among the most famous and sought-after of all Sarracenia cultivars! It's gaping mouth graced the cover of the Savage Garden as it was always one of Peter's favorite plants! It has a form unlike any other Sarracenia; a fiery, vaulted lid and a dark lip around it's insanely wide mouth. ‘Randy Rable’ is a hybrid Peter made years ago and named for a very dear friend. It is extremely rare in cultivation. It has a similar look to ‘Deep Throat’. Very few plants have this amazing wide, dropped mouth and articulated venation combined! These two plants complement each other beautifully to make a stunning, wide mouthed plant!
Care Instructions
Sun: Full sun outdoors
Water: Always sitting in at least two inches of distilled or purified water, they prefer deep saucers of water or undrained containers in order to recreate their very water logged conditions
Temperature: 15 degrees - 100 degrees, needs protection from colder winters and always keep very wet when hot
Dormancy: All Sarracenia require a winter dormancy starting in October and ending in February. Many of the pitchers will turn brown and die back during this time. Leave them outdoors in full sun, sitting in distilled water during this period. If you live in an area that snows; over winter them indoors on a sunny windowsill in an unheated room or garage. Still sitting in full sun and distilled water.
