I know what I want for christmas!

 

[Fred P]

Thanks for the kind words everyone!!

I'm working on some nice hybrids I hope to share with you soon. I think you'll like 'em.

Wonderful! I don't know how you can keep them looking so fresh this late in the year.

Thanks Brokken.....The trick is to take photos of fresh pitchers.
Trust me, they are not all fresh as you can see in the background of some.

Beautiful, Fred! Your plants never fail to impress!

There's a Juthatip Soper in the US?!
Your plants are simply amazing. You are quite the grower

Wow! Firesticks and Stands Out in a Crowd are phenomenal! The S. rosea is quite a chubby fella, isn't it?

Fantastic plants and photos. Thanks for posting them. Wish my sarrs looked even 1/10 as good.

Looks like you may be keeping the regia a bit too wet. Slightly moist, and cool.. Seems to grow best in HL conditions IMO.

I want your Leahson!

Hey Fred, the TF calendar submissions are up... go enter some Sarrs.

Here is "Firesticks" in the shade. Thanks....it is a great plant!! Yeah, the rosea is always a little chubby but you should see the size of "Big Momma"...puts the rosea to shame.

I had just watered it Mass but you're right, it has been kept pretty wet because it's so warm here. I certainly can't keep it in highland conditions like I should cuz I live in SoCal for god's sake and it's just too damn hot here in the summer. At least I have it indoors now instead of outside in the blazing sun as I did last year (which is why it almost died).

Just let me know and I'll save you a piece when it divides. It's a slow one but it's almost there!

Thanks Mass! It a purp venosa burkii x "Adrian Slack Imposter" that sprouted in 2006 and just turned 5 years old. It has some wonderful pitchers and a beautiful flower. Definitely a keeper.

It's amazing that they look so fresh so late in the season! Gorgeous collection!

Absolutely beautiful plants! Thanks for sharing those. I especially like the S.Catesbaei and S.”Northern Light," going to have to add 2 more to my wish list, LOL.

I was trying to keep track of which ones I liked the most for my comment. But then there just got to be too many.
