Up for auction is a cup of U. longifolia. This plant was just divided on 4/8/09. If it happens to drop its leaves and has not recovered by auction end/ship date, I'll send the winner pictures of the best looking cups and allow them to choose (I have multiple divisions). Sometimes this plant...
VFT "Cupped Traps"
Typicals
I recieved this variety in a trade as typical, but it clearly isn't typical. I'm guessing it's one of the Dentate or Dentes. Not sure what the differences are though.

As I've noted before 'B52' show their best trap growth in the late summer and fall. Two of the red numbered plants are typicals, the rest of the red numbers are 'B52'. Can you spot the typicals?
For the curious the blue numbered plants are
1. 'Akai Ryu'
2. 'Sawtooth'
3. 'Jaws'
4. "Fused...
