Sarracenia leucophylla L48A MK, Hot Pink Selections 1, Botanique Summary

Sarracenia leucophylla L48A MK, Hot Pink Selections 1, Botanique

Sarracennia leucophylla L48A MK, Hot Pink Selections 1,Botanique, is well known for having the entire upper part of the pitcher flaming hot pink. But beware: only the summer pitchers are amazing hot pink. The spring pitchers are a bit more red than the typical leuco, but nothing outstanding.

Like all sarracenias, leuco is native to North America. The species is endemic to the Southeastern United States. Sarracenia leucophylla is naturally highly variable. In size the clones can vary between 30 cm to over 1 m. Clones can be red+white or white with green veins or just white. Both of the latter may be antho-free or not. Venation may be more or less pronounced and fenestrations bigger or smaller. Clones with pinkish or reddish tops are showing introgression of S. rubra genes and plants like Leah Wilkerson being hybrids with S. flava. In the hobby leuco clones are very popular as parent plants for producing innumerable hybrids.

Leucophylla is classified as Vulnerable n the IUCN List of Threatened species.


As with most of the sarracenias threat to it's existence are: loss of its wetland habitat to development, forest succession that was historically kept in check by natural wildfires, poaching of plants for cut-flower trade and by collectors.


Sarracenia leucophylla inhabits moist and low-nutrient longleaf pine (Pinus palustris) savannas. Its native range along the United States Gulf Coast, and generally west of the Apalachicola River on the Florida Panhandle. It is also found in Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, and apparently North Carolina.

We offer this clone in  M/L size: 1 adult growing point and 2+ smaller growing points. Plants either flowered or will flower in the coming season.
