Sarracenia readii x moorei – Select Clone

Posted on October 17, 2011 | 5 comments

Earlier this year I got a recent division of S. readii x moorei – select. This was created by Phil Faulisi – and I’m really happy that it threw up some recent late pitchers. I can’t wait to see the large pitchers it will throw up next year. I’ve seen some established divisions of this plant with impressive pitchers.

S. readii is a rubra/leucophylla hybrid. S. moorei is a flava/leucophylla hybrid. The late pitchers on this plant are quite a treat this late in the season, thanks to the S. leucophylla influence which sends up nice pitchers in the fall. A few other plants in the garden have already been reduced to phyllodia. (Phyllodia are those non carnivorous leaves – they catch sun rays for the photosynthesis action…)

Ahh, I’m going to enjoy this cuz dormancy is right around the corner… 🙂
