Ron Posted July 21, 2014 Report Share Posted July 21, 2014 Being a newbie to this hobby, and having viewed your other post first about seed sown Sarracenia and having just viewed these images, it really fills me with the confidence to want to try and achieve the same results as what you and the other growers on this forum have achieved. I know it will take time and a lot of learning, but just wanted to say thanks for sharing. ron 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

linuxman Posted July 22, 2014 Report Share Posted July 22, 2014 Good looking plants Matty. What's the S. flava Don Schnell parent? I've got a S. flava v. atropurpurea, Exum, N. Carolina, All red, D Schnell, Clone 2. Is that the same plant? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattynatureboy44 Posted July 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2014 Good looking plants Matty. What's the S. flava Don Schnell parent? I've got a S. flava v. atropurpurea, Exum, N. Carolina, All red, D Schnell, Clone 2. Is that the same plant? I have no idea, unlikely as I have had it from a small seedling. This years the first year its got to a decent size and very dark colour, it hadn't done alot before that. I bought a batch of seedlings from someone off £bay, just labelled as S Flava Don Schnell X S flava Rubicorpora. Does it look very similar to your plant then?

Well, it's a NC atropurpurea so should be the proper thing. However, this is the first full year I've had it and it's not very red yet.

mattynatureboy44 Posted July 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2014 glad to see the Heliamphora surviving, what temps has it been down to? Been down to -3 according to my digital thermostat, last winter was very mild here. I was debating bringing it into the conservatory but it looked healthy throughout winter so I left it in there. Its only a small greenhouse and I used to heat it and keep windows and doors closed but lost a lot of cephs and Heli's this way every year. I have only done this for the past two winters with the door open for airflow and no heat and the plants seem to be happier, so far with no losses to report.
