Sarracenia ‘Leah Wilkerson’ x ‘Adrian Slack’
Cross by Brooks Garcia
Just a quick update on this fighter of a plant. After suffering in the low light conditions earlier this year, it’s bounced back and is actually looking rather decent. Here are two recent pitchers that came up and a third is on the way to open up shortly. (Special thanks to the S. leucophylla influence on the fall pitchers.) In seasons past, prolonged exposure to bright direct light would cause the green veins and slight pink flush that’s currently are visible fade to white; this produced a very beautiful and haunting contrast with the deep red throat splotch. There’s still a little bit of season left, so I am hoping that this plant will show off more white in the upper portion of the hood before finally going to sleep for winter dormancy.
