vft guy in SJ
VFT and Drosera lover
Well after a couple years of prodding, I finally got off my rear and went to vist Bugweed today. Here are a few snaps of his awesome collection.
Enjoy,
Steve
Just ignore the mess VFT Guy made around my tables. **That black tube you see snaking around in front of the tables is actually alive and is trained to move directly under the foot of anyone who attepmpts to enter the yard... **
Ok, Steve, they saw this already.
WELL FINE! Show the whole dang world!!!!
The s. rubra bog. Wherryi red form Citronelle Bog. mobile Co., Ala.
wherryi typical Baldwin County, Perdido, Alabama
wherryi Stocky Form Escambia County, Ala. Near Atmore.
s.r. ssp. jonesii Etowah Bog, Henderson County, N.C. Extinct
Etowah Bog Heterophylla Form
McClure's Bog, Henderson County, N.C.
s. r. ssp. gulfensis Yellow River, Santa Rosa County, Florida
Red Form Turkey Hen Creek, Okaloosa, Fla.
Ancestral Form Taylor County, Georgia
Heterophylla Yellow River, Santa Rosa Co., Fla
They herbicided the Yellow River site to death. Progress
Typical S. alata. This little Bog hails from St. Tammany Parish from a rescue in a power cut. They herbicided this ones home too. But they didn't get it's genetics!!!! NASC got'em!!!!
Bagdad Bog, Florida. Nice hybrid bog. A species or two does live here, but the hybrids were too much!
S. flava var. rugelii
S. leucophylla
s.X readii.
s. X popei.
s. X moorei
And mixtures in between.
This is Ron Lane's "lightly veined." Clone #2 I grant when it first opens, the veining is attractive, but not altogether too noticeable. The copper lid was a plus!
Good shot of the "Copper Lid".
This is the oldest leaf on Ron's clone #2. The veins have turned purple, and appear to have increased. Also, I noticed a purple flush in the throat. Wonder if I can bring that out of this plant somehow, next year?
Another shot of the oldest leaf. Not so lightly veined now. Whatever set this off had to do with maybe getting more sun, or more intense sun. (Uh, It wasn't the tannic acid I put in!)
Enjoy,
Steve
