Hello fellow grower folks! With spring here, many pitchers are just exploding into growth. From the seedlings, I’m being constantly surprised with what’s coming forth. Here’s an update on how these babies are doing from The Reptile. For those of you who don’t know about Phil Faulisi’s S.’Reptilian Rose’ (a freekin’ rad hybrid), you can read up on it here. I’ve first mentioned about the reptile crossings done by Dr. Travis Wyman in this post about 8 months ago in August, 2010. The seedlings have gone dormant since then, had their pitchers trimmed back, and now that it’s growing season — the pitchers are coming back with a vengeance. There are still quite a few seedling plants sending out pitchers that I will update you on later once those have developed, but for now, this is the insanity that is going on. Again, special thanks to Travis and Phil for their inspirational Sarracenia madness.
