Sarracenia 'Welsh Dragon'
For the serious enthusiast looking for deep, intense pigmentation and strong genetics, Sarracenia 'Welsh Dragon' is a perfect addition to any collection. This hybrid is known for its characteristic appearance and high-quality traits.
Features and color
The most striking feature of the 'Welsh Dragon' is its pink color. Unlike some cultivars that rely purely on contrasting veins, this plant develops a soft pink color with a lighter white upper part of the pitcher when exposed to sufficient light.
Origin and Breeding Value
The authenticity of this cultivar is crucial. These plants were obtained directly during a visit to the original breeder, Ian Salter from Wales. This guarantees that it is the 100% genuine, vegetative clone and definitely not offspring or inferior seedlings.
Within the current Sarracenia world, the 'Welsh Dragon' has proven to be an excellent crossing partner. The plant is currently being successfully used by various top breeders to strengthen the characteristics of pink plants with white lids in new generations of hybrids. For those who want to breed specifically, this genetic basic material is top-notch.
Characteristics:
- Appearance: Soft pink pitchers, which grow quite tall.
- Genetics: 100% authentic clone, directly from Ian Salter (not propagated from seed).
- Crossing value: Excellent plant for introducing lighter "lids" in top crosses.
- Cultivation: Full sun required for maximum color expression.
A reliable, pure-bred cultivar with documented origin, which offers clear added value both as a collection plant and in a breeding program.
