Identifying a Sarracenia Hybrid: Dana's Delight

Pitcher Plant

Question: I bought this pitcher plant from Target, mislabeled as a cobra lily. What North American pitcher plant or hybrid is it?

Answer

Hi Neil,

Your plant is a Dana's Delight hybrid—a common Sarracenia hybrid, great for beginners. "Cobra lily" correctly refers only to Darlingtonia californica; it was misapplied here.

Kudos for rescuing it and growing outdoors! In full sun, it'll develop deep red pitchers. Care sheets: www.cobraplant.com/caresheets.

Good growing!
