Flower Count '08

[philcula]

I'm only allowing a few of my plants to flower, for breeding purposes, and popping off the buds on everything else. So far I estimate I've popped off 300-400 buds. Flower count at my larger shared growing facility is somewhere around 1500 (coservative estimate).

My flower count is... lemme count... ZERO oh ok not too hard to count

 

[Capensis]

Lol, mine is zero too! But hopefully, my Sarracenias make flowers next year. This may be a little off topic, but... I have a D. aliciae that is making a flower stalk

Those flower photos are nice. Here in NJ, my flowering size plants do not yet show a single flower. Well, at least I got to move them from the garage to outside a week ago. Spring will be here soon, but we still have frost and still could get snow here.

I do not have specifics but while I was tearing apart one of my bogs and transferring to the other I came up with a rough count of 108. I am going to have a busy pollinating season... And I still have not gotten all my seed from last year sown...

 

[joossa]

My oreo's flower is finally blooming, but the second one aborted. Pitchers have a way to go though, which is strange, because my Purp already grew a new one.

 

[Captain Hamata]

So far the only Sar flowers I have are from the plants I bought from Andy. That's a total of eight flowers. The rest of the Sars in my collection are still waking from dormancy and have yet to send up any buds.

S. x Catesbaei

S. alata black throat x S. flava rubricorpora

S. rubra subsp. gulfensis
