Sarracenia 'Conversation Piece' is a 2018 Plant Delights/JLBG introduction, selected from a 2008 hybrid seed crop of Sarracenia flava x Sarracenia leucophylla. Our original robust growing clump is now 2' wide with 28" tall pitchers, which emerge green with red veins, with the top half of each pitcher soon changing to bright red as warmer weather approaches. In late winter/early spring, the clumps are topped with an abundance of brilliant red, upside-down, flying saucer-like flowers for a truly amazing show. Moist, but not soggy soils and an acidic pH are the key for success with these very easy-to-grow perennials.
