Sarracenia leucophylla L23 MK, red/white
Sarracenia leucophylla L23 MK is a clone with an intense red & white coloration of the upper third of the pitchers. The bottom part is a highly contrasting bright green.
Like all sarracenias, leucophylla 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. Plants 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 or even S. alata genes and plants with a dark throat patch may have S. flava genes. 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.
