What color are the leaves of this plant in person? to me they look brown (which is very cool) and what color are the flowers of your plants? Thanks for sharing.
 
To my eye the flowers are a blueish-violet. The leaf color looks just like this photograph: brownish-copper.
 
Where on earth do all you ppl get all these rare plants?

I get my rare plants from trades with other CP growers.

call Cook's carnivorous plants. They don't list them, but they offer P.debbertiana. They also offer several rare temperate ping hybrids. I can't grow Temperate pings, though. My conditions are too hot.

you can grow temperates in the ATL, slurm.

I think you can grow temperates in the Winter (late Fall til early Spring) under lights and then put them in the fridge during the Summer. I assume by temperates you mean P. vulgaris, ect.

Cheers,

Joe

What do you mean put them in the fridge?! It will be too cold and dry for them in there, they will NEVER go out of dormacy and will probably die! They are best grown outside all year.
