Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Dana's Delight' is a hybrid based on species leucophylla with white hoods accented with much bolder dramatic red veins than other cultivars and, in fullest sun, a pink flush through the white. Pitcher plants are best grown in moist, peaty, acid soil in full, hot sun. They are most easily grown in pots sitting in a saucer filled with one inch of water. Remove the saucer and keep moist over winter.
