Sarracenia leucophylla “Juju Lips”
A clone I received from Jacob Farin. He coined the term “Juju Lips” which is Hawaiian slang for “Big Lips”.

The stocky thick pitcher combined with late season color quickly made this particular clone a favorite out of the batch.

Here’s another seedling from the same batch of seed. It doesn’t appear as thick as the other one, but still a beautiful plant. And it’s hungry too. That fly later became lunch.

So, as I am organizing and putting plants together by their species in the new grow areas, I found one interesting form of S. psittacina, or psitt (pronounced like “sit”), that I forgot I had. I find the S. psittacina species pretty interesting as they are unlike their other Sarracenia counterparts — the psitt species have a bulbous globular shaped head where other Sarracenia exhibit the trumpet/tuba/french horn appearance.
Eh, anyways — what I like about this particular S. pisttacina I recently uncovered from the jumbled mess is the large semi-half-circular wing-ridge it has (called an ala). They are an interesting species for sure and I’m finding that I am appreciating psitts a little more these days! As with other Sarracenia, there’s a lot of variation within the species! I hope to ramp up in my ps(h)itty psitt department in the coming growing seasons.
Anyway… check out this piece of psitt…
