Sarracenia flava var. ornata - Lidless FormSarracenia flava var. ornata Lidless Form

we have a purple leucophylla bit with a slightly bulbous

bright Sarracenia leucophylla

'Freja' produces lovely pink-petaled flowers

and the flare of the hood helps keep rain out

This network of veins covers a large portion of the green leaf surface

creating an almost triangular outline when viewed from the front

while the upper section develops increasingly dense white areolation as the trap matures

a trait likely inherited from Sarracenia oreophila

typically red to maroon in colour

pale pink flowers measuring about 10 cm in diameter

and white patterning from both parents while developing its own distinctive character

this plant's distinct habitat no doubt contributes to its unique appearance
