Andy 1973 Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 Hi Now that my plants have started to grow, I thought I would post a few pics. S. Oreophila L to R. De Kalb Co Alabama, Ex Martin Cheek & Purple Throat. Always one of the first to open. Sarracenia Oreophila X Purpurea Heterophylla. I especially like this plant, it was a seedling I bought about 18 months ago and this years pitcher dwarfs last years considerably. Sarracenia Leucophylla – Hosford, Liberty Co, Florida This is last years Autumn Pitcher which survived the Winter and has now a lovely pink colour. Plus a couple of Flowers Sarracenia Flava var Rupricorpora, Apalachicola National Forest, Florida Sarracenia Flava var Cuprea X S Flava Finally what's left of my Venus Fly Traps Thankfully all survived the winter (just ) but last year they filled these pots and instead this year it looks like I am going to get lots of little plants.... Thats all for now. Thanks for looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sebulon Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 (edited) Looking good! Can I ask you, I've been wondering this for a very long time. Why are all british cp-growers so interested in Sarracenia? Greetings, Jarkko Edited April 28, 2010 by Sebulon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greetings, Jarkko Because they can be grown unheated....and we have very good taste! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loakesy Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 The Sarracenia Oreophila X Purpurea Heterophylla looks familiar. Is that one of mine? I really like this cross! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy 1973 Posted April 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 The Sarracenia Oreophila X Purpurea Heterophylla looks familiar. Is that one of mine? I really like this cross! I have my suspicions that it may well be. I bought 2 of these seedlings along with a number of plants from another forum approx 2 years ago. A short time later I noticed one of your posts (I think it was entitled "Promising Seedling"), on the post you asked a user how their seedlings were doing that you had passed on. I think from memory it was the same user that I had bought the plants from. I agree it is a nice looking cross. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loakesy Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 I had quite a few spares, and have sent them to a number of people, so, who knows?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
