Finding a Double-Flowered Sarracenia for Zone 7: Look to Tarnok and Hybrids

An Oklahoma (zone 7) grower wanted a "double-petaled" pitcher plant like S. leucophylla 'Tarnok'. Clarification: **petals are flower parts** – 'Tarnok' has mutated, frilly flowers, not double petals per se.

Zone 7 Options

  • All Sarracenia species thrive in zone 7 with winter protection for pots.
  • Trumpet types (flava, rubra, alata, leucophylla) and their hybrids offer similar stature.
  • Check cobraplant.com or Sarracenia Northwest for 'Tarnok'-like hybrids in stock.

Flower Note

Utricularia and Pinguicula have orchid-like flowers, but they're tiny. For showy, mutated flowers, 'Tarnok' and its derivatives are unique among Sarracenia.

Any Sarracenia will work in zone 7 – just mulch pots or sink them for winter.
