Sarracenia Mardi Gras
Sarracenia ‘Mardi Gras’ is one of the most stunning pitcher plant hybrids from the Dynamic Duo (the late Rob Gardner and Larry Mellichamp) of North Carolina…a cross of Sarracenia leucophylla x Sarracenia purpurea crossed with a hybrid of Sarracenia leucophylla x Sarracenia psittacina. Imagine making a living by forcing pitcher plants to have unprotected sex…what a rough job! Sarracenia ‘Mardi Gras’ forms a vigorous clump of 1′ tall, upright pitchers that appear like giant red and white veined cobra heads…with bloodshot eyes…beautiful!
