Project Tarnok: Harvest (Part 1)

This is the first year my Sarracenia leucophylla ‘Tarnok’ flowered. For those of you who are not familiar with it – it is the really funktified flowering version of Sarracenia leucophylla.  Check out the regular version flower here. Then check out the rad funky flowering action here. (Images by Barry Rice, read up on leucophylla goodness here.)

Earlier this year, I attempted to pollinate the flower and wrote a bit about it here and here.

So, what happened? I recently harvested the pod.  Here’s a quick look…

A look at the pod.  Did it work?!

STAY TUNED!
