Sarracenia x farnhamii

Sarracenia x farnhamii is a natural hybrid of Sarracenia leucophylla and Sarracenia rubra. This cross is more generally called Sarracenia x readii. I'm not sure what differentiates plants called "farnhamii" from other leucophylla rubra crosses. It may just be an outdated synonym that persists among hobbyists. Like its leucophylla parent, the spring pitchers are not particularly glamorous but it puts on a lovely show as fall arrives.
