Hi Jorge,
I believe it's the Dana's Delight. I have both myself, and the one you have looks exactly like my Dana's. (see below for comparison)

Judith Hindle


Dana's Delight

Thank you very much Michelle! Now i can have peace in my mind

How big grows yours? I mean, how tall are those pitchers? Mine is only a 2 years baby and it has pitchers that are 10 inches tall, thought the new pitchers seems that are going to be taller

Jorge -

Thought I would reply to your question as well...

I have Dana's Delight growing in my outdoor bog, and the pitchers are well over two feet tall. In contrast, my mature Judith Hindle has pitchers that are only about 16 inches tall.

To me, the easiest way to differentiate these two is that Judith Hindle has shorter, wider pitchers and pitcher mouths, plus a lot of green coloration in the hood; whereas Dana's Delight is taller and more slender, with deep red (almost looks flourescent) hood with white speckles.

Hope this helps!

Hello!

Mike: Thank you very much for the info you have given me, i hope that from now and on i can be able to recognice the differences between these 2 hybrids. I have always had this problem

So, Dana's Delight is a tall pitcher producer

That is so good to hear. I can't wait until see my plant with those pitchers measuring 2 feet

Thanks a lot!

Hi Jorge, my Dana's Delight is about 2ft tall and is about 3 years old. The Judith is much younger, so the pitchers are about 8".
