HannahMariia Posted May 14, 2017 Report Share Posted May 14, 2017 Hi! My first post. I've been keeping CPs for around 3yrs now. Just wondering if anyone can help me ID this please. it looks very similar to one of my sanguinea's that was bought from Hampshire carnivorous plants. But the pitcher has a slightly different shape to a sanguinea and the leaves are a deeper purple. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoLongFairWell Posted May 15, 2017 Report Share Posted May 15, 2017 I spoke with Matt Soper about this last year and he told me that the true N. Rebecca Soper doesn't have red leaves. There's obviously another plant in circulation that looks similar. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoLongFairWell Posted May 15, 2017 Report Share Posted May 15, 2017 I don't know very much about Nepenthes so can't comment further with any degree of certainty. Someone else will though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jurkylius Posted May 16, 2017 Report Share Posted May 16, 2017 Richard have right. Many clones are not properly tagged. But when I have low light for this nepenthes he have green leaves. Only better light paint leaves red. When I bought this nepenthes, he was tagged as sanguinea. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tropicat Posted May 19, 2017 Report Share Posted May 19, 2017 It can be N. judith soper maybe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HannahMariia Posted May 21, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2017 I've been doing some reading and N. Gracilis has purple leaves. It's not a gracilis though, some maybe a hybrid between sanguinea and gracilis. I'm sure it's got sanguinea in it as its looks so similar to my sanguinea.

HannahMariia Posted May 21, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2017 Think I could have found out what it is. N. Sanguinea 'Black jack'. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manders Posted May 21, 2017 Report Share Posted May 21, 2017 I think thats probably correct. I also got a couple of these a while back, i think one was actually labelled sanguinea, somewhere allong the way i started thinking they were rebecca soper but this thread and what Richard said about Rebecca Soper not have having red leaves does all fit together. There was some discussion about these very dark sanguineas a while back, some possibility that it was a hybrid (most sanguineas seem to be green and larger). Most i'd's on hybrid patents need to be taken with a pinch of salt anyway, Sanguinea 'black jack' seems like a good enough id. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCurrell Posted June 11, 2017 Report Share Posted June 11, 2017 Looks similar to a "Sanguinea" i purchased that turned out to be a Rebecca Soper. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
titankilller1231 Posted June 12, 2017 Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 Could be sanguine Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitefox Posted June 12, 2017 Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 I've seen xRebecca Soper developing reddish dark leaves where I live. It was in a garden center, and the plastic tag had the name with a copyright character, so I guess it was the original clone. Then there is also other similar plants if not the same, incorrectly labeled as "Sanguinea Black Beauty" or in small size without any id at all. Both of these when grow look exactly the same and are males. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HannahMariia Posted July 1, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2017 The pitchers are changing! They are getting speckles, the shape is changing. This one is more hour glass like. [emoji16]Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
