Sarracenia leucophylla “Santa Rosa Co” x ( ‘Ember’ ) Potted
Damon has been really interested in making crosses with psittacina influences lately. Ember is a fantastic plant, bred by Jerry Addington, with lots of psitt influence making the pitchers look like red snakes! Damon made this cross hoping to make an even more open and lacy looking Ember and already lots of these young plants are looking like just that!
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.
