Received this wondeful little 'judith hindle'

Had to take a photo of this little pretty.  My girlfriend bought it at a Lowes and it looks pretty darn happy to me.  I'll repot this later on this evening.  Wanted to post the photo because it is so darn pretty.

if you think it's pretty now, wait till it colors up in the sun
 
I love it! She bought one for herself too when she was in Florida visiting her parents. I tried to take photos of the plant inside but that didn't work too well. Me and pictures are hit or miss- some turn out remarkably well and others are basically really bad. I took this plant outside to photograph it and the bright sun washed out some of the red. I was surprised to see so much red on such a young plant but it was definitely there. Yes, I am waiting to get this outside to color up but I don't dare for about 2 months. There was a thread last year where people posted photos of their Saracenias. It was a friendly battle of the beauties. I remember seeing some pretty spectacular Sarrs and I distinctly recall a mature 'Judith Hindle'. I'm glad I have my own.
 
That's in better shape than the one I saw at our Lowes.
 
Here's the intermediate stage where the white comes out, before it all turns red!

wow,I really want a judith hindle now.....
 
Starman,

Yes, you do. They are a spectacular hybrid. And pretty hardy, too, even for a sar.
 
Hi All,

Nice Judith

I have one myself, but i don't like it and i want it to die, so i put it outside. Well, it rained, conveniently, every time the soil has gone dry! That Judith has the best luck. Well, it will open some pitchers now, maybe i should stop hating it and keep it alive on purpose.

My last (and first) Judith I got from Lowe's in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina last year was doing great for a while, then it got scale from the S. minor twice and then died during dormancy. Not sure why. My current one is a spindly, tiny rescue from Lowe's. It's finally sending up some healthy growth.

Ah, good old S.'Judith Hindle'. I remember potting up 50-odd individual plants (from Agri-Starts) like it was yesterday. Maybe because of that hellish day I'm not that fond of them anymore!

Not that I wuldn't buy one just for the sake of saving it.

S. 'Judith Hindle' is my current favorite hybrid. It amazing to watch the color progress when grown in full sun. They also are very good at catching insects.
