Description: This is a listing for one Sarracenia Saurus x Waccamaw. S. Saurus is a giant, well known xMoorei cultivar created by Phil Faulisi. It produces pitchers of huge proportion, almost 3 feet tall that colors up dark red. S. Waccamaw is another well known S. flava var. Atropurpurea cultivar that has strong red pitchers with a neon green interior and a red lid. It is slow growing and was selected from wild seed many years ago. The hybrid between these two cultivars pretty flava-esque given its parantage of 75% S. flava and turned out great giving the strong parantage. A lot of them turned out to be red individuals while some turned out to be green veined individual with a red lip. I grew these from seed back in Winter 2021 crossed by Jeremiah Harris and the batch has gone through 2 rounds of cullings by myself. I selected nicely colored and vigorous individuals. This individual is an interesting one with red and a dropped lid. Sarracenia goes dormant in the winter where it stops growing completely and loses most of its pitchers. These have been growing indoor for 1 year and outdoors for 2 years. This plant, like other Sarracenia should not be grown indoors and should be grown in full sun, outdoors and sitting in a tray of water. The plant shown in the pictures is the exact one you will receive. The cup noodle is for scale. The image is the exact specimen of what you will receive. Care instructions will be provided with packing. The tallest pitcher is 12.5 inches tall with a lid of 1.75 inches. The rhizome is 1 inches long and has 1 growth point. I have this individual labeled as Clone xMO**-4.17SJ. It is growing in a 2.5 inch pot in a 50/50 mix of peat and perlite. Care instructions will be provided with packing. These plants are pest-free and have been growing outside. My conditions are around 65-90F in the Summer and 25-40F in the winter. A milder winter should be given. No international sales either because I also don't have paperwork for export. Please be mindful of your weather. As long as its above 35F (day and nights), it should be fine. I have heat packs available for add-on if the weather is particularly cold in your area: https://www.ebay.com/itm/133944109878 Ships potted with USPS Priority Mail. I ship on Fridays and Saturdays. Any orders placed from Sunday to Thursday will be shipped the upcoming Friday. Returns not accepted on live plants, seeds or rhizomes. I ensure live arrival guarantee if purchased with a heat pack in the winter. Pictures must be provided within 3 hours of delivery if the plant is dead or heavily damaged (such as a broken growth tip) for a refund or replacement. I cannot do anything if a negative review is left. Please contact me if you have any questions. Thanks. - Stephen (@sjuan_cps on Instagram)
