The Pitcher Plant Project

Hello everyone! Simply summed up: I’m Sarracenia addicted so I decided to put up this blog about the plants I grow to give everyone a little window into this corner of my world. I love to garden, I love to grow things – but the plants that I obsess over are the Sarracenia. I am captivated and intrigued by these cylindrical savages – and most of all, I love to create hybrids from the plants that I have.  I’m pretty new to this art, but OH what a wonderful addiction this is.

I guess that’s why I call it “the project” since in my mind there are so many ideas and images of Sarracenia that have yet to be made manifest. I am always striving, imagining, and working on some sort of project with these plants. It will be a few years before I see some of the ideas I have become tangible, but I hope this blog would help document this journey.

I’ve met and connected with so many wonderful individuals in the few years that I’ve been growing that have been teaching and inspiring me in this Sarracenia/carnivorous journey, and I am forever thankful to them. (You know who you are). This blog would not be here if it wasn’t for your guidance, your care, your friendship and your love.  So, thank you!

And to the other other readers out there that may just be happening to stumble upon this humble blog, Welcome! I hope this blog will inspire you to get out there and plant something 😉
