amazing

 

[cpsammich]

amazing

Lol you're supposed to post your own photos

 

[meizwang]

Lol you're supposed to post your own photos

I'm flattered that you know this photo wasn't taken by Newspaperfort

The only thing that ruins the photo is my crappy rent a car in the back, but other than that, the pitcher on that thing was just outrageously gigantic. There weren't any other clones in that field that even came close in size. good news is that this site is maintained by the Nature Conservancy, and it's the healthiest site I visited.

Here's my official contribution to the thread:

S. montana Transylvania Co, NC

S. flava looking pretty good this season

What hoppen'd here?

 

[hcarlton]

None of mine are anything to show right now, but I must say, those are some AMAZING flava and the leucophylla is massive!

S. 'Tarnok'

a plant labeled x moorei Wilkerson Bog when sent to me

Thought I'd post some very colorful S. Oreophilas on this thread..

Is this intense color even normal? I've seen some sand mountain oreos but none of them have ever been this dark (from a private growers massive bog)...

Any ideas?

I grow some S. oreophila "Heavy Veined" that are really similar and maybe? even same clone. The plants in your photo seem to have more red within tube but mine are more deeply veined. I think I posted a photo a couple of pages back of it. Really similar in shape but maybe variability in light could cause the deep red?? but just putting that out there. Nice Plant!

Per Stewart McPherson and Donald Schnell there is now a S. oreophila var. ornata

 

[dionae]

Per Stewart McPherson and Donald Schnell there is now a S. oreophila var. ornata

Did they provide pics?

Can't wait to get the book for my birthday in August. I agree with Barry Rice's comment in the ICPS newsletter vol. 41 #2, June 2012 regarding a "Taxonomic War". Apparently, there are no keys in the book but need to read it. The Flora of North America book does not recognize S. oreophila var. ornata or others, for example S. purpurea var. montana. See http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=1&taxon_id=129294. There will always be splitters and lumpers but hopefully future traditional taxonomy in concert with maybe barcoding or other genetic work will end the controversy. Hope I just didn't open a can of oligochaetes. Sarracenia are wildly variable and awesome to grow. Lance's plant appears to have a deep red throat unlike the clone I'm growing.

Lance,

Could it be a hybrid?

Plant I currently have labeled as S. oreophila heavy veined or var. ornata

S. 'Adrian Slack'

S. leucophylla Hurricane Creek, AL - too soon to see if they qualify as 'Hurricane Creek White' but look promising. Seed grown from 'HCW' seed.

S. 'John's Autumnal Splendor'

 

[Iwest]

Wow, beautiful sarrs, NaN. Your AS looks unbelievable. And something about that last pic makes me laugh, looks like two people standing back-to-back trying to see who's the tallest

S. oreophila "Sand Mountain #2" - showing some decent veining while it can before being overshadowed by S. leucophylla and S. flava.
