Sarracenia identification quiz #2

[Emesis]

Alright since my last identification quiz had a lot of responses, I have decided to post two more quizes.

The first new quiz is for this plant. The bottom left new leaf is about 8 cm/3 inches in height.

What is the species of this plant?

looks like a s. alabanensis but im not sure,

Maybe popei (rubra x flava), or rubra x alata.

 

[sarracenia]

I'd have to guess popei too.

Rubra wherryi?

 

[Emesis]

Similar to my response in Quiz 3, this is a species, not a hybrid. Keep guessing people. I'll put up the answer in a few days.

Looks like rubra wherryi to me

 

[Alvin Meister]

Well I guessed it had rubra in it! I'm not too hot on rubra identification - I'm waiting for an alabamensis to arrive and then I've got to collect the other four

 

[Emesis]

Too bad your S. alabamensis hasn't arrived yet, as this plant is of the same species. It is from Location 003.

My alabamensis seems to have a larger hood, and less red coloration

. Are you sure it's S. ruba ssp. alabamensis?

 

[gardenofeden]

it is obviously a young plant and not typical shape.

nathaniel,

Yes, I'm sure it's a S. alabamensis. I got it at the UC Davis plant sale which was in part managed by Barry A. Rice.
