Oklahoma sarracenia can S. purpurea grow outside all year? What about its hybrids?

[BumpyEvergree]

I live in Oklahoma and wanted to know if Sarracenia purpurea or its hybrids could grow outside year round because I know they are (or were) native to Canada and its lows are much colder than ours has been in ten years, even though I pretty much gave an answer to my own question can I have some recognition?

What are your lows? The Canadian forms should do fine with the temperatures; even more southern species can handle low temps with protection. (Straw mulch and a tarp is used by some people in Colorado for example). What you’ll have to be careful of is dessication. It does get cold in N. Minnesota and Canada but remember that they’re mostly in bogs and covered by lots of snow, which insulares against the extreme cold and protects from dry air.
