Hello everyone.

This announcement was first given to the Thank You members (as always) and some things are already gone, like Sarracenia flava var. rubricorpora x (x mitchelliana x 'Royal Ruby')

I have a question....The Sarracenia leucophylla "Alba Top"......do the pitchers themselves have any red pigment?.....or are they pretty much green and white?

[adnedarn]

It is similar to Sarracenia 'Hurricane Creek White', it is NOT anthocyanin free; it has red flowers and the whitest hoods seem to show best in really good light. The picture I have above it was getting about 6 hours of direct sun a day. Hope that helps :)

Ohh.....I think I know what I'm gonna buy from you now. :grin:

NO PICTURES ON THE Sarracenia leucophylla "alba top" x flava var. ornata?!
THATS THE MOST INTERESTING ONE!! :-O

[dashman]

Oh wow! There are some nice looking hybrids in that bunch. I see 3 or 4 I think I am going to have to buy.

How big are they? 2-3 year old?

[adnedarn]

I sell divisions of plants, not pots of plants (unless multiple growth points are not ready for division). So I take the pot that's the most crowded, unpot it, split it up and send off the larger one... They are definitely mature in size for the most part, here is S. flava var. rubricorpora x (x mitchelliana x 'Royal Ruby') which I sent off today

This is from last year, but you can get an idea of rhizome sizes in general... And I didn't update Sarrs. last year, so very few were sold/traded off since then. http://www.terraforums.com/forums/showpost.php?p=959445&postcount=24

Thanks. Will definately be getting a few.

Happy return customer. I got the plant I ordered today in the mail. Thanks so much Andrew!

Now, if I can just make room in my collection to squeezing in one or two more... :)

Trying to figure out this 'Alba top'.. is it unique onto itself? googling yielded more confusion than answers. I did manage to find one article from ICPS that would suggest 'Alba' refers to Schnell's Ghost, but that is a yellow flower variety. Hurricane Creek form also has a yellow flower I believe.

[adnedarn]

I bought this clone from the person who identified it and he told me that it had never been distributed, so I'm the only one selling it, and the only one out other than the original and the ones recently sold is the one I sold at the 2009 NASC auction. for $50. Note the "alba top" part is in double quotes, indicating is is not registered/official.

ah.. ok. thanks for the clarification. was going no where fast trying to find out more info about it haha.

Andrew has terrific Sarracenia. I picked up a Sarracenia 'Judith Hindle.'

If I am not mistaken both are genetically similar in that they both produce all white topped pitchers but are not anthocyanin free. Alba top can be found in nature as well. It just so happens that Schnell decided to make a cultivar of one of his particular clones.

BTW, ordered some sarracenia yesterday.
