Sarracenia flava ‘Waccamaw’ is hand down the nicest Reddest Flava with NC genetics.
This exceptional clone of Sarracenia flava var. atropurpurea is a superb representative of the uncommon variety native to the Green Swamp of North Carolina, USA. The clone was originally imported to New Zealand as vegetative material by the Christchurch Botanical Gardens circa 1980. It was subsequently obtained by me in 1987. It has been maintained solely via vegetative propagation since that time in order to preserve its distinctive properties.
Representative of the form of S. flava varieties native to the east coast of the species range, a strong flush of pitchers follows typical S. flava flowers produced during early spring. The clone readily produces rhizome divisions with two or three pitchers emergent from each rhizome growth point. Phyllodia, typical S. flava in form, are produced during late autumn and endure through winter.
The pitchers attain a height of 60-80 cm. From the outset of pitcher growth, under optimal conditions of maximum possible sunshine, exterior coloration is a uniform bright red throughout the length of the pitcher including the outer hood (Fig. 1). It is noteworthy by contrast that once the pitcher opens, the nectar roll, the interior of the pitcher, the column, and the underside of the hood are bright yellow. Superimposed on the bright yellow interior surface is a network of bright red veining. A feature of the column is a prominent central red vertical stripe. Accompanying the red stripe are red veins that follow from the interior of the pitcher rising upward through the column branching out into the surface of the underside of the hood (Fig. 2). The outer margin of the hood is without undulations. As the growing season progresses, by mid-summer the bright yellow surfaces become infused with a varying degree of red. Autumn phyllodia also attain a reddish coloration under optimal light conditions. This sum of features reflects those recorded in the wild (Schnell 1998; Fowler 2008a,b).
The name ‘Waccamaw’ is in reference to Lake Waccamaw which is within the confines of the Green Swamp, North Carolina, being the native habitat of the Sarracenia flava var. atropurpurea.
Sarracenia flava, the yellow pitcherplant, is a carnivorous plant in the family Sarraceniaceae. Like all the Sarraceniaceae, it is native to the New World. Its range extends from southern Alabama, through Florida and Georgia, to the coastal plains of southern Virginia, North Carolina and South Carolina. Populations also exist in the Piedmont and mountains
