Parents of S. 'June Bug'

[ilbasso]

I finally have a sarracenia flowering that wasn't purchased that way and it happens to be the S June Bug that I got last year.

This got me to wondering...what the heck is in this plant? I wouldn't think that I'd have much trouble finding out online, but for some reason never found the answer.

Can someone clue me in?

Thanks

Redbug is patented, the other "bugs" have patents pending. It should be propgated vegetatively or by Tissue Culture (under license) only. The "parentage" may be described in the patent application or contact Larry Mellichamp at the UNCC.

NAN, what do you mean "vegetatively"? Just curious.

Is that by way of division only?

Divisions or cuttings.

Speaking of Sarr hybrids;

Anyone know who did the 'Scarlet Belle' hybrid?

I find it rather fetching.
