The cross was done by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sarraceniaobsessed.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Brooks Garcia<\/a>\u00a0in 2011 and I started to germinate the seeds\u00a0in 2012. The seedling below is 2 years old and time will tell what it will be like a few years from now.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s the same parentage as the plant that I&#8217;m calling <a href=\"http:\/\/thepitcherplantproject.com\/blog\/2013\/08\/11\/sarracenia-legacy\/\" target=\"_blank\">S. &#8220;Legacy&#8221;<\/a>\u00a0&#8211; however the S. &#8220;Legacy&#8221; cross was done by Brooks a little earlier\u00a0(in\u00a02008.) This other batch of S. &#8216;Leah Wilkerson&#8217; x &#8216;Adrian Slack&#8217; has some promising seedlings, but this one that I separated out looks to hold some nice potential. It&#8217;s throat marking marking and pale top remind me of S. &#8220;Legacy&#8221;, only this plant has a nice contrasting deep red\/black border around the lid, nectar roll, and down the central midrib. It&#8217;s one plant I&#8217;ll be keeping my eye on. As always, great work, Brooks!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/farm6.staticflickr.com\/5504\/14559591923_07aa8c687d_c.jpg\" alt=\"Sarracenia 'Leah Wilkerson' x 'Adrian Slack' 2011 - Brooks Garcia\" width=\"534\" height=\"800\" \/><\/span><br \/>\n<em><span style=\"color: #808080;\"> Sarracenia &#8216;Leah Wilkerson&#8217; x &#8216;Adrian Slack&#8217; &#8211; 2011 Cross by Brooks Garcia<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.staticflickr.com\/2925\/14539464625_a2508f8da6_c.jpg\" alt=\"Sarracenia 'Leah Wilkerson' x 'Adrian Slack' 2011 - Brooks Garcia\" width=\"534\" height=\"800\" \/><br \/>\nSarracenia &#8216;Leah Wilkerson&#8217; x &#8216;Adrian Slack&#8217; &#8211; 2011 Cross by Brooks Garcia<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/farm4.staticflickr.com\/3857\/14353010217_2b18b5f6f5_c.jpg\" alt=\"Sarracenia 'Leah Wilkerson' x 'Adrian Slack' 2011 - Brooks Garcia\" width=\"534\" height=\"800\" \/><\/span><\/em><br \/>\n<em><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Sarracenia &#8216;Leah Wilkerson&#8217; x &#8216;Adrian Slack&#8217; &#8211; 2011 Cross by Brooks Garcia<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I recently came across a pot of S. &#8216;Leah Wilkerson&#8217; x &#8216;Adrian Slack&#8217; seedlings while rummaging through seemingly endless pots of seedlings to repot &#8211; and this one seedling really caught my eye.
