Daina’s Delight – Fit for a Princess

Looking absolutely ravishing in the October garden is the native pitcher plant, Sarracenia ‘Daina’s Delight’. This 1990s introduction was selected by pitcher plant expert, Kim Magnuson of Hawaii, from an original cross involving Sarracenia leucophylla and an unresolved hybrid created by New Zealand’s Mark Edwards. The Sarracenia leucophylla genes cause it to produce an insane number of pitchers in the fall. I can’t imagine a bog garden without this incredible hybrid. In case you haven’t tried it, these make incredible cut specimens for a table arrangement.
