Altair Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 (edited) here is some seed grown sarracenia species and complex hybrids. Sarracenia "Cuore" (excellens X formosa) My favourite hybrid. Its name means heart in italian and it's obvious why! Sarracenia "Glider" with its giant lid and tiny mouth: A nice excellens X wrigelyana hybrid with variegated flower Another hybrid (wrigelyana X excellens) X minor it produces flowers with slightly different colors Excellens X leucophylla: And Excellens X minor: Sarracenia flava ornata "Filiformis". It produces weird spider-like traps in spring and normal pitchers in autumn: Nice and tall leucophylla: Green and white leucophylla: Huge monster Sarracenia flava, seedling from P.Wilson. Location is East of Supply Road, NC. I can put one hand inside its mouth. Edited September 27, 2009 by Altair Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarcelvW Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 Hi, What do you mean by seed grown? Did you grow all these plants yourself by seed and then gave them names? Or did you purchase the seeds from the original plants? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maverick Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 Very nice plants indeed! I really like your mutated flava var. ornata. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Altair Posted September 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 Hi,What do you mean by seed grown? Did you grow all these plants yourself by seed and then gave them names? Or did you purchase the seeds from the original plants? The large majority of the hybrids shown are created by Frangelo but I grow them because he has not enough space. The other plants were 1 year old seedlings I got as gifts or purchased from sellers. I made some nice hybrids myself but they are still young so I will photograph them next year.

Loakesy Posted September 19, 2009 Report Share Posted September 19, 2009 Beautiful plants, and some I'm sure others will want to get their hands on before too long. I see a bit of a trend forming here. Is it just me? Or is the excellens becoming more and more popular?!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Altair Posted September 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 a very promising hybrid: Sarracenia (leucophylla X purpurea venosa) X Sarracenia flava rugelli. It's a 2 years old plantlet and I really like the big V-shaped marking on the neck of the pitchers. And again, Sarracenia X "Bocca di Rosa" has a nice white and red veined troath: Sarracenia X "Cuore" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
