Great job! What does the plant look like and would they propagate by leaf cuttings?

Thanks Jim. The plant leaves are green and top out at about 4 inches. I'll take some photos. Seems very easy to start from leaves, I have one that "took" recently from a leaf. I started 2 more today so we'll see how they do.
 
Is that the same thing as something called D. hybrida? I used to have that one. I got it through a fridge dormnacy alriight, only to lose it, along with others, when a very high wind knocked a couple planters off the porch, onto the ground.

Full name is D. filiformis x intermedia - Hybrida. I got it from Sarracenia NW. Here's a quick photo I just took.

This is what I had within the past couple years:

Please keep me in mind for a cutting someday...
 
Looks basically the same as mine!
 
very nice plant
 
Well it does help to use the scientific name properly so people know what you're talking about :).

There is some interesting discussion on the ICPS listserv as to whether or not the plants of this hybrid from Butterfly Valley, CA are fertile or not or exotic "introduced" or not.

Yes, and as usual, I am a wimp and see both sides of the story.
What's your take, N a N?
