Being that it's from a death cube gives me good evidence that it's a Scarlet Belle; it's one of the more common hooded sarrs.
 
That is without a doubt S. x wrigleyana. I can not say if that is a cultivar or not. It's very etoliated and colorless.
 
Scot, how can you discern which cultivar of S. x wrigleyana it is when it's practically clear?

im basing the Scarlet Belle guess not on how it looks,
but from what is known about death cubes..

its a very common TC variety for death cubes,
while "regular" S. wrigleyana is not..

so im saying S.B. because of the source of the plant..

and..growing up in a death cube, if it is a S.B. it would make sense that its not showing any
red coloration right now..SK will get it out in the sun, and time will tell..

i believe it actually says 'Scarlet Belle' Hybrid on the side of the cubes. thats what mine turned out to be. awesome plant!!

But doesn't a psitticina contain S. minor? Give it time and the "ugly duckling" will become a "beautiful swan".
