Amar Posted June 25, 2010 Report Share Posted June 25, 2010 (edited) Not sure, but 'Brooks Hybrid' could be a contender? Hmm, ‘Leah Wilkerson’ seems to get even taller: http://www.carnivorousplants.org/cpn/Speci...34n1p27_28.html Edited June 25, 2010 by Amar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimfoxy Posted June 28, 2010 Report Share Posted June 28, 2010 The most remarkable thing is that they appear to be standing up on their own! Now there's turgidity for you.... (I hear Stephen feeds them special blue tablets). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davy Posted June 29, 2010 Report Share Posted June 29, 2010 My L8, S. leucophylla ,white top/red veins, Tibbee, Alabama tallest opened pitcher is 118 cm this year , with another not fully opened pitcher at the same height. 2 years ago , the tallest on this palnt was 121 cm, (just shy of 4 foot). I hope it betters itself this year . No picture of the plant, but it was seen in the flesh , by Ian Salter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
