This guy here wasn't much to write home about until last year. And this year has shown more. I like the color, large traps, more of a cluster growth. Anyhoo... I just like it .... so look at the plant ... LOOOOOOOOOOOOOK lmao 🤣

Sarracenia Rubra Ancestral Peach Co, GA

These don't seem like a very flashy plant but when they grow many crowns and cluster, they look amazing

This is another cool cross, S. Samson x Elvis Wilkerson

8hunter6 @8hunter6.bsky.social · 21d

This is a S. Moorei x Red Tube. This is one of my favorites from my collection of like.. 200 different cultivars. During the spring and first half of the summer it isn't all that interesting BUT the end of the summer you see it stirring and then BAM! Hot pink pitchers! They turn red as they mature
