8. How did he
cultivate such
an amazing
plant?
His goal was to create a
Sarracenia that was:
-rich in color
-rapid and abundant in growth
-can be grown in many different
environments
-with a wondrous shape
9. Why did he
choose S.
leucophylla?
For their color
formation, and how it
grows well in wet and
semi-dry grasslands.
10. Why did he
choose S.
psittacina?
Mainly because this species
produces massive amounts
of pitchers in a rosetted
shape, and also maintains
their color even when dormant.
11. Why did he
name it the
‘Scarlet Belle’?
It was actually his son and
his son’s fiancée who named
it on August 7th, 2002
because his son’s fiancée is
a “belle”, and the color
theme for their wedding just
happened to be scarlet red.
