S. (oreophila x 'Royal Ruby') x 'Adrian Slack'S. (oreophila x ‘Royal Ruby’) x ‘Adrian Slack’ – young pitcher of a cross I did a couple of years ago. I believe that this is a pitcher that was sent up a bit later last season.

S. [(oreophila x minor) x (purpurea x rubra) x leucophylla] x "Green Frog"S. [(oreophila x minor) x (purpurea x rubra) x leucophylla] x “Green Frog”
This is a complex hybrid I did a few years ago. It’s the first time I’ve actually seen some characteristics from this baby.

S. psittacinaSarracenia psittacina
This is a large clone from Jerry Addington. It is still dormant and was recently repotted. It does not look like much now, but hoping it throws out some beast-mode behemoth foliage once it wakes from dormancy.

Sarracena rosea "Big Mama"Sarracenia rosea “Big Mama”
It’s currently dormant and recently repotted. Just like the S. psittacina above, I am hoping it throws out some beast-mode behemoth foliage once it wakes.

Sarracenia “Big Mama” – A select form of Sarracenia purpurea ssp. venosa v. burekii or Sarracenia rosea – depending on how much you feel like typing or talking. Well, no actually. That’s just me. You read up on that debacle here. Whatever it’s called, I know that it’s a pretty nice plant. WORD TO YO MAMA.

Rad Rosea!

Mahvelous Montana

 

Sarracenia purpurea ssp. venosa var. montana
[Sarracenia purpurea ssp. venosa var. montana]

A fresh pitcher of this S. purpurea ssp. venosa var. montana opened up a little while ago, and the vein coloration is just starting to seep in now. I love this whole yellow/red contrast, and as the season continues, the veins will get bolder and eventually the outside will turn red. Quite frankly, dahhhlings, I find this splendid contrast quite maaahhhveelous. Mahhvelous montanas!

Sarracenia purpurea’s are pretty rad!   You can read up about some of the differences explained pretty freshly on Barry Rice’s site: http://www.sarracenia.com/faq/faq5538.html
