sarracenia flava var. rugelii

Sarracenia flava var. rugelii 'copper blush' Okaloosa Co, FL

Okaloosa Co, FL

First described
2018
Type
single clone named hybrid vigor giant
Cultivar
'copper blush'

Mike's coppery rugelii from Okaloosa Co — distinct from Mike King's copper-tinge Santa Rosa. Hybrid-vigor giant; bigger than Mike's rugelii Clone A.

Standout traits

  • Coppery blush color on traps — fades as traps age; suggests historical hybrid origin
  • Slightly angular lips — possibly a 'pathway' to Reptilian-Rose-style angled-lip hybrids if confirmed genetic
  • Hybrid vigor giant — bigger than Mike's rugelii Clone A consistently (Mike, post #6, 2020)
  • Petal blush on flowers
