Sarracenia ‘Judith Hindle’
This gorgeous cultivar was bred by Alan Hindle in England and named after his wife by Peter D’Amato of California Carnivores. Parents of S. ‘Judith Hindle’ are from two separate clones of S. (p x f) x l. This is read as Sarracenia purpurea crossed with S. flava, then this offspring is crossed with S. leucophylla.
The plant has 8-12 inch pitchers with ruffled hoods. Coloration starts as a light green and turns deep red with white blotches with age and in full sunlight.
