Sarracenia x 'alucard' is an officially registered cultivar but in the form of a 'grex', meaning that any seedling from the cross between a rubricorpora and a 'Royal Ruby' can technically be considered 'Alucard', as long as it fits the general description of the cultivar. The plant registrant allowed this distinction from the usual single cultivars registered because there was a certain homogeneity in the seedlings produced (simply put: big red plants).
Among this original cross made by Phil Faulisi, 2 clones stood out for their remarkable characteristics:
The "Select" here present
The "Prince of Darkness"
Sarracenia x 'Alucard' -- "Select" is truly a magnificent plant for collectors. It will reveal its full potential if left to establish itself for several seasons (between 3 and 5) in its pot. But the wait is truly rewarded by this exceptional plant.
