Widemouth Hybrid

Back in 2009, I did a cross using a Sarracenia flava form, informally called  flava “widemouth”, just cuz… it gots a big ol’ mouf!  It’s nectar roll is pronounced more than a typical Sarracenia flava. The pollen parent was a Sarracenia leucophylla “red” x minor var. okeefenokeensis

So, flash forward to 2011, this is what one of the seedlings is looking like.  Its mouth is somewhat pronounced and it has some of those little light window things (areoles) visible around the tube.  It’s only 2 years old, but for this “kid”, I am really hoping that mouth stays pretty big as it grows up.
