A few years ago, my friend Karen Oudean<\/a> gave me a Sarracenia “Doodle Bug” with a seed pod with a few seeds in it. Sarracenia “Doodle Bug” is Sarracenia rubra ssp. alabamensis x psittacina, and sorry… I don’t have a photo of Sarracenia “Doodle Bug” on hand, but you can always use Bob Ziemer’s Carnivorous Plant Photo Finder<\/a> to view photos of what the parent plant looks like.<\/p>\n

Anyway, I took the pod, extracted seed, put the seed through 3 weeks of damp cold stratification in the fridge.\u00a0 After that, I threw em’ down on some planting media and watched em grow. About 2 years later, I came up with all sorts of different looking plants, however the one below really caught my attention ‘cuz that hood is friggin’ wide.<\/p>\n
