Looking good. I like number 2 in particular.

Your 'Starry Night' looks like it's got some minor/psittacina in it. Is this only apparent in the spring pitchers?

Sarracenia “Red Blush”

 

[jimscott]

Very impressive!

 

[Woodnative]

Rob-
Once again, excellent photos of great plants!!
The color of that 'Red Blush' is incredible! The contrast of colors on the 'Starry Night' is awesome too!

 

[Trapper7]

Beautiful!

WOW Rob, very nice pics. The Red Blush that I sent you looks a lot different than mine! Here is mine:

Your pic looks like an Alata! My pic looks more flava-ish and yours is a division from this plant. Very interesting. Wonder if it is the greenhouse conditions vs. my outside conditions?

Hey Wes! STUNNING!!!

My division is still a baby compared to yours, next year it should have some larger pitchers and will probably look just like that! I did get that division from you The tallest pitcher is about 7 or 8 inches only in my picture of red blush. Next year should be better. The hood formation looks similar though! I'll be sure to post a picture of it next season

Alexis: re Starry Night, most all of my pitchers on that plant look just that - the side view of the pitchers from earlier this year look stocky and thick at the top. A new crop of pitchers is forming... and once open i'll take a few photos of that as well for comparison. This is my first full season with this one as I received it in fall of last year. looks more excellens-ish to me though, I love the large areoles on it. My growing conditions are greenhouse (i live on a mountain with high winds and racoons, next to a state park, so I get lots of deer, skunks, an occasional hippo or two, LOL )


Ilbasso: Oh, just here and there

Thanks for the kind words everyone!
Rob

I believe that Rob is right, I think the parentage is Leuco x Minor.

Wow, your Sarrs never cease to amaze me!

Ah, I thought it was a readii for some reason.
