Carnivorous collection hopping weekend – part 2 of 2.
After visiting Mike’s garden filled with blinding leucos, we drove down to meet our buddy Calen over at Phil’s spot. That is right – the grand finale in last week’s serendipitous Sarracenia soiree takes us to the garden of Faulisi. Phil Faulisi. The man. The legend. Oh boy, and the plants? All I could say about that awesomeness was THIS. Click that link. Then play after every photo.
Phil – thanks so much as always for your hospitality. Always a pleasure to hang out and nerd out over plants!
Enjoy!

Sarracenia “Megamouth”
Phil and his GIANT minor.
Quick! Everyone touch the flava!
Here’s the Dir-tay Mon-kay. Named after Truh-ay-ay. Haaaaaay.
A sibling to Sarracenia “Megamouth” not as large but what a beauty.
Wow. This this is so badass.

A beautiful Jerry Addington hybrid that’s doing excellent here!
Mmm… Hawt lips. Sarracenia “Hot Lips” that is.
Straight up bling!
I really enjoy all the windows. It almost reminds me of a stained glass cathedral… of insect death.
Simply amazing!
Just elegant.
Dude. These pitchers are as wide as your face.
A really nice squat and chunky looking pitcher.
This mantis devoured the fly with a quickness.
Phil’s new BFF.
This is one amazing S. mitchelliana.
WTF is this thing?! A stick insect?!?! What?!
