Sarracenia x moorei Antho Free (Shallote, Brunswick Co x Ctenium fields, Bill Scholl, MKL 46) (Shipped Bare-Root)

Bill Scholl's striking anthocyanin-free moorei hybrid crosses green S. flava from Brunswick County, North Carolina with pale S. leucophylla to yield tall, wide-mouthed pitchers in luminous lime-green and cream—a rare departure from the species' typical crimson palette that serious collectors prize for its elegant, architectural beauty.

Care Requirements

Light — 8+ hours of direct sun daily. Outdoors in full sun or a south-facing greenhouse is ideal.

Water — Pure water only, under 50ppm dissolved solids. Use distilled, reverse osmosis, or collected rainwater. Most tap water will not work. Use the tray method — keep roots sitting in 1–2 inches of water at all times during the growing season.

Soil — Pure peat moss or long-fiber sphagnum, with optional perlite or sand added for drainage. Garden soil will not work.

Dormancy — Required. Allow 3 to 4 months of cold dormancy each winter for long-term health.

Hardiness — Zones 6–9 outdoors depending on species, or overwinter indoors in a cool location.

Shipping & What to Expect

Our bare root Sarracenia (North American pitcher plants) are shipped according to their natural growing cycle. During the active growing season (spring through early fall), you'll receive a plant with live foliage, often including vibrant pitchers. In the winter months, Sarracenia naturally enter dormancy and will be shipped without leaves or with brown, dying pitchers — this is completely normal and essential for the plant's long-term health.

Please note that the plant and photo shown are representative of the variety but not the exact plant you will receive. Each plant is unique, and we guarantee a healthy, established rhizome ready to grow.
