S. leucophylla 'Hurricane creek white clone E'
A variety that is extinct in the wild-they used to grow in Baldwin Co, AL. The land was purchased by a paper company, and is now a tree plantation. In the local area, it is very common for tree plantations to replace leucophylla bogs.
Fortunately, some seeds were collected before the site was destroyed, and they are now in circulation. My collection has several different clones, and they are all being evaluated. Spring pitchers sometimes have a little bit of red in them, but the fall pitchers are very white. HCW is not antho-free, but some of the fall pitchers have close to no red pigments under optimal conditions. the clone pictured here is very shapely and vigorous.
Another amazing Hurricane Creek White clone can be found here, grown by my friend Robert Co: thepitcherplantproject.com/blog/2011/07/11/sarracenia-lec...
