Sarracenia photos- showing off

  • #21
Yep. What Bugweed said.
After a while you can easily tell a hybrid (like Dana's Delight) from a pure leuco, and once you become a codger like me and have seen a zillion of 'em, you can even tell what region a leuco came from, give or take. There are a number of isolated stands of leuco scattered thinly east of Rt. 65 no more than a few miles inland from the Gulf of Mexico. Have yet to see any other species growing with them, not even S. psittacina.

FANTASTIC Plants!!! Since there are so many pots, can I ask what media you use? Is it straight, commercially available peat and perlite or do you add your own local ingedients?

Beautiful plants Trent. :hail:

Woodnative, the potting media is nothing special. Lambert brand sphagnum peat, perlite, sponge rock (puffed perlite) and a little sand.

Let me show off one of my favorites. S.purpurea purpurea x flava.
