JimsPlants Posted June 15, 2011 Report Share Posted June 15, 2011 Recieved this plant back in spring as a flava var. maxima, however with the opening of this new pitcher im starting to have doubts, arn't maxima's meant to be all green?

PurplePitchers Posted June 15, 2011 Report Share Posted June 15, 2011 Looks like var. cuprea to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexis Posted June 15, 2011 Report Share Posted June 15, 2011 It's possible that the pitchers might start off copper coloured and then fade afterwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimsPlants Posted June 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2011 Thanks, i'll keep an eye on it. The earlier pitcher at the back it produced is all green and always was, hope the other will fade. I wouldn't worry too much but i bought another var. maxima -North Carolina from the same selller and its a joke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keefy Posted July 4, 2011 Report Share Posted July 4, 2011 I have an S.var Maxima which i bought from a CP grower, its been green for two years now, i keep my plants on window ledge and put outside in the summer, [only have small yard!] well last year my Maxima was green, this year its got a new picther coming up, like a normal Flava, yellow with red veining!

I'd expect a S. flava var maxima to be all green and S. flava cv 'Maxima' to look like a normal flava, albeit a robust clone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diva Posted July 5, 2011 Report Share Posted July 5, 2011 Did you buy it as maxima? Slack named a cultivar maxima that has a Lil red in the throat, ths plant is easy to distinguish as it has a bluey tint to it. Photo would help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
