Phil Green Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 I can't see from your pic's if the outside of the pitchers are smooth or hairy/felt like. ssp purp. is smooth. It looks to be mostly ssp venosa, but there is something about it that (to me) say's it's a hybrid between the two - ssp. purp x ssp. venosa (or vise versa). Lets see what others think.

ada Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 With the shape of the pitcher and flower colour i'd say its venosa burkei ada Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexis Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 That's a tough one. ssp. purpurea style pitcher on this one, at the back: Looks like an intergrade to me. That doesn't necessarily mean it's purpurea x venosa - it could well be from a population of wild plants that have the characteristics of both subspecies.

le petit Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 for me it's just a ssp. venosa, no burkei Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlos Rohrbacher Posted January 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 (edited) Hi people, I'm lost, this site have a lot of imagens and I didn't saw differences Regards. Edited January 10, 2009 by Carlos Rohrbacher Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ada Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 I'm not going on the picture with the thinner pitchers,these look to me like the plant has been repotted and is considerably younger than in other pictures. The picture of the pitcher in hand is mature i.e much shorter and fatter with a ruffled hood.Some pitchers/plants it is hard to see the hairiness and individual plants vary considerably. The flower stalk could be down to Carlos's growing conditions,which i presume are warm.This would provide a more contineous growth period than our warm days and cold nights while our plants are growing their flowers. That said it could have some other distant origin in its make up,this just my view. ada Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gardenofeden Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 I'm lost, this site have a lot of imagens and I didn't saw differences Regards. some of the plants on this site labelled as ssp. purpurea do look like your plant, especially the New Jersey photos; this is an area where the two ssp. purpurea and ssp. venosa overlap (intergrade) and it is difficult to tell the difference. I have some New Jersey purpureas and I keep changing my mind as to the ssp, not sure it is possible. As said above, your plants looks MOST like ssp. venosa but could be a mix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlos Rohrbacher Posted January 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 Hi people, These pictures are of the one plant, throughout three years. I lives in south of Brazil. In the winter temperature varies of 16 degrees -» - 4 degrees (Celcius), humidity 75% In the spring temperature varies of 23 degrees -» 8 degrees (Celcius), humidity 80% In the summer temperature varies of 29 degrees -» 12 degrees (Celcius), humidity 80% (or more) Do you need more picures, any part of the plant in particular? Thanks. Carlos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
austonH Posted August 6, 2009 Report Share Posted August 6, 2009 I think its ssp. Venosa. I dont know if its a variety of Burkeii or not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexis Posted August 6, 2009 Report Share Posted August 6, 2009 It just doesn't fit in either category. Just label it as S. purpurea ssp. venosa/purpurea intergrade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
