Hello all you beautiful people! Yeahhh, I know ā It seems like it has forever since Iāve posted anything here. Yeah, things have been pretty busy outside of the garden the past couple of months but rest assured I still make time to go down and recharge my soul in The Asylum. The plants are all still doing good, but itās that weird in-between time for me now. Spring pitchers already are burning out (thanks to my early season start) and pitchers of the autumn-indulging plants are just starting to form. Anyway ā hereās a quick and dirty photo-update-reel from the past few weeks.
***
Sarracenia oreophila ā for the most part the spring pitchers are gone. Still a pitcher here and there looking ok.
Sarracenia leucophylla āHurricane Creek Whiteā ā clone F x āAdrian Slackā I had this one seriously cramped pot of of these seedlings and repotted those seedlings into these four trays. You can see the old foliage all floppy nā crud but theyāre all throwing up new pitchers. Should be a pretty interesting cross.

FREAKINā⦠THANK YOU ERIC!! So not that long ago a really awesome surprise came in the mail from Eric Morrow. After a somewhat really bad week for me, this surprise was a huge pick-me-up. By the way ā check out Ericās Instagram feed for some Sarracenia-heavy updates: @sarraceniacrazy!

In my clean up of plants this year, I was glad to have found this baby barely surviving. I salvaged what I could and glad itās recovering nicely!

A cross I did a few years ago. Had a few of these growing in one pot, and the pot self culled itself. I recently repotted the survivors (strongest of that bunchā¦) and theyāre putting up some promising young pitchers.

Another neat little seedling of a cross I did that is reacting well to the repotting from earlier this year.

Sarracenia oreophila x āAdrian Slackā
I repotted most of these plants into individual pots only this year. They seem to have liked that.
Sarracenia oreophila x āAdrian Slackā
Sibling to the one above it. The whole litter has everything in between both of these forms and color schemes. Gotta love the diversity.

Hereās one of the more recent crosses I did ā Sarracenia leucophylla āHanrahanā x alata AF. Iām excited about this one because⦠well⦠itās an AF recessive S. areolata and canāt wait to use it in future AF projects. And⦠itās fuzzy!
Not a pitcher plant but⦠sheeyat, Iām loving how this Drosophyllum is doing.
