First frost ends a strong season for wherryi pitcher plants
Original: Sarracenia rubra spp. wherryi has been looking good here at the end of summer. Too bad we had our first frost last night
A grower reports that Sarracenia rubra subspecies wherryi, a carnivorous pitcher plant, looked strong through late summer but faces the season's first frost, which was light rather than killing. The plants will soon be moved indoors to a cellar for their winter dormancy. The post has drawn attention from plant and carnivorous-plant enthusiasts following the changing season.
Why now: Gardeners are marking the end of the growing season and sharing how they overwinter carnivorous plants.

Evidence
- Sarracenia rubra spp. wherryi has been looking good here at the end of summer. Too bad we had our first frost last night (but not killing). Soon may have to bring my carnivorous babies indoors for their winter dormancy in the cellar. # plants # carnivorousplants # SavageGarden… · richard_a_lent@ecoevo.social · 48
