{"product_id":"sarracenia-oreophila-x-alata-black-throat","title":"Sarracenia oreophila x alata \"Black Throat\"","description":"\u003cp\u003eSarracenia oreophila x alata \"Black Throat\" crosses two southeastern pitcher plants. S. oreophila, the green pitcher plant, is a rare species from the mountains of Alabama, Georgia, and North Carolina, known for sturdy, upright pitchers with a wide mouth. S. alata \"Black Throat\" is a dark-throated form of the pale pitcher plant from the Gulf Coast. This cross brings together oreophila's upright form with alata's dark coloring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eS. oreophila tends to finish its pitcher season early and produces flat, curved, non-pitcher leaves in late summer, and this hybrid may show some of that habit. Color is strongest in full sun.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; font-size: 14px; margin: 36px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background: #f5f5f5;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px 14px; border: 1px solid #ddd; width: 35%;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDifficulty\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px 14px; border: 1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eEasy\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px 14px; border: 1px solid #ddd; width: 35%;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWater\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px 14px; border: 1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eDistilled, rain, or RO water only.
