Identifying Sarracenia 'Judith Hindle' and Indoor Lighting/Dormancy Mistakes

North America carnivor

Identification

Plant is S. 'Judith Hindle' (tissue-cultured hybrid). ~2–3 years from flowering maturity.

Critical Errors

1. Indoor artificial light inadequate: North American CPs need full sun outdoors. Single bulb creates weak stems on tall hybrids.
2. Refrigerator dormancy won't work: Plants need gradual cooling to produce dormancy hormones. Sudden fridge shock fails.

Correct Path

• Keep indoors under lights (14 hrs/day) this winter—skip dormancy for one year.
• Spring: acclimate to full sun outdoors permanently.
