I've been thinking about this, and can't see what D'Amato, or Cook, or PFT would have to do with this discussion. This isn't about them, it's about sarracenia pitcher plants, and their preservation through stewardship. They have theirs already. I know Peter D'Amato personally, and count him one of my friends, but this is not concerning him. He has a collection of everything that would melt your eyes with all the beauty and species he has. But this concerns growers everywhere. Our heritage in the bogs is disappearing at an alarming rate. Bob Hanrahan bought a bog just to preserve some, 40 acres worth. His are inter mixed and interspersed among each other, so a whole lot has changed in these plants because of the nature of an open bog. Everyone is x-pollinating with everyone else, so the diversity is all mixed up. Each bog, because of the different plants in them, are all unique in themselves, and what we want to do, is preserve that diversity from that location. Plants from Citronelle/Deer Park in Alabama, Milton, Florida, Wilkerson's Bog, Chipola, Florida, Wilma, Florida, Sandy Creek Road, Wewahitchka, Florida. Plants from all over, available to those who want to preserve their genetics, preserve the diversity of the bog they came from, and to distribute to any who want these locale seeds, and seedlings if you cultivate. The more common the plant becomes, the less desirable to those who would poach them, and in our favor as they would be easy to procure, and everybody wins.
