Imduff,

Do you know the parents in the Green Mutant plant?

Thanks for sharing the photos from Mr. Hummer's bog.

There is an "all green" jonesii x psittacina that John made over 15 years ago. It's been in cultivation here in the US for years. He crossed this hybrid with the "all green" gulfensis to produce the 'Super Green Mutant.'

Is the "Super Green Mutant" the same as the registered cultivar Sarracenia 'Super Green Giant' (J.Hummer)?
The ICPS Database states:

The plant is entirely anthocyanin-free, a roust grower, and upright. The hood is convex with a rounded appearance. The pitcher leaves are gently curving, and areolae are present on the rear upper third of the pitcher leaf. Pitcher leaves are 20-30 cm (8-12 inches) or more in height. The flower petals are green."

Yes, it's the same plant. I tried to think of the name when I posted it but, didn't get it quite right.

I've also got a quick question guys, is it normal for pitchers on some plants to curve back when they are coming out of dormacny? mine are doing that right now

I'd have to agree with Kirk, those plants look nice, Nep. The oreo and montana are nice specimens too.

Still pretty early in the season but here's a new plant I got last week. A great natural hybrid that held up well over the winter. I really like the color and form.

nice looks kinds like 2 parts rubra, one part purpurea, maybe one part minor as well, cool, is it normal for developing pitchers to start curling back?
 
  • #478
PDX,
Fantastic Plant!... nice photo of it too.
Kirk, it's two parts rubra one part psittacina (gilpini x rubra??) natural hybrid where there are no S.minor growing.

S. gilpini is the natural hybrid of S. rubra x psittacina.
