If you ever have a few extras let me know. Sars are one type that I need more of :blue:
 
Sorry, Fred P, you're not fooling me....plants that gorgeous don't come easy....gotta be some magic involved! They are truly amazing, not kidding. But, I see you live in North Carolina, where they are native, so that doesn't hurt! Anyways, all jokes aside, some if the nicest Sarras I've ever seen!

Thanks Cam. It's just something I've enjoyed for a long time so I know what they like. And although they are loving NC this year, I lived in southern CA the last 10 years with no rain and very little humidity. I just moved to NC in the fall of last year and moving my entire collection was not fun. They all survived though. :)
 
Absolutely beautiful Fred! That's why you're one of my favorite Sarr guys! =)

He has some up for sale right now... I picked up a few plugs myself! Here is my favorite one on arrival from him:

Wouldn't you know this past Winter we had a lot of rain here in So Cal. In fact it's still in upper 60's with intermittent showers in late May. Go figure. But you're in perfect CP country and your Sarras are beautiful.

How in the world did you move your collection cross country without any casualties? I hope to move back to Central TX in a few years and am already wondering how I'm going to move my growing collection of Nepenthes (some already good size), smaller collection of Sarras and few other CPs. Please any words of wisdom would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks and lucky you for the rain Javaliz. I lived in Valencia for those 10 years during the worse drought ever and it was always so nice when it finally rained a little during the spring. It was tough to keep the collection watered most of the time and the heat and dry air always took a toll on my plants. But you’re right, NC is being kind to them and they’re loving it.

It was tough moving the collection across country but I don’t have any good words of wisdom for you as it was late in the season when I moved and I just stacked my tables on top of one another smashing all the plants. But since they’re Sarrs, they bounced back nicely before winter. Good luck with your move though, it’s never easy moving a large collection.

Very nice, lots of great stuff in there! DSC_4640 (2) in particular catches my eye... with the purple trim around the lid, what is that?

Thanks Andrew. That was a cross I did back 2011 of 'Leah Wilkerson' x Oreophila. It kept a number of the LW traits in this clone. Wonderful plant!

How did I miss this... Are the last photos S. x umlauftiana? The first and the last of this set of photos are my favorite. The 4th is pretty too :D
 
  • #20
Thanks!

And yes Andrew, the last 3 pics are umlauftiana. It has really done well here in NC.....heck they all have, but part of the reason is they're getting more sun here than they did in CA.
