Sarracenia Leucophylla 'Hurricane Creek White' is a stunning carnivorous pitcher plant, celebrated for its ethereal beauty and unique coloring. Its tall, slender pitchers are predominantly a crisp, clean white, creating a striking contrast against delicate green veining that fans out like intricate lacework. The upper portion of the pitcher is almost translucent, allowing sunlight to filter through and accentuate its graceful design. The vibrant white transitions into a soft green near the base, with faint hints of pink or red occasionally visible around the mouth of the pitcher, depending on the growing conditions. The plant's elegant, upright form and captivating coloration make it a true centerpiece in any carnivorous plant collection.

Grown from tissue culture, this 1 small plant (approximately 2-5 cm) is perfect for collectors and enthusiasts looking to nurture a unique botanical treasure. This variety hails from the wetlands of the southeastern United States, specifically the Gulf Coast region, and is revered for its vibrant and luminous coloration.


Care Instructions:

  • Humidity: Maintain high humidity (above 50%) using the included cup lid or a humidity dome.
  • Light: Requires bright, indirect light to thrive. A grow light with 10,000–15,000 lux is ideal for young plants. Avoid direct, harsh sunlight until fully hardened.
  • Water: Use only distilled, rain, or reverse osmosis water. Keep the potting mix consistently moist but not waterlogged.
  • Temperature: Prefers warm days (20–30°C) and cooler nights (10–15°C). Ensure temperature stability.
  • Soil: Plant in a nutrient-free carnivorous plant mix (e.g., peat moss and silica sand or perlite).
  • Feeding: Do not fertilize young plants. They will naturally capture small prey as they grow.

Growing Parameters:

  • Native Habitat: Gulf Coast wetlands, USA.
  • Growth Rate: Slow-growing as it establishes roots in its new environment.
  • Mature Size: Pitchers can grow up to 60 cm tall under optimal conditions.

This Sarracenia Leucophylla 'Hurricane Creek White' is a must-have for carnivorous plant enthusiasts. With proper care, it will reward you with its striking pitchers and elegant presence, making it the star of any collection.
