Origin
A Mike-bred S. moorei seedling selected for an unusually pristine white lid. Currently informal — Mike is watching the clone as it matures.
Standout traits
- Bright, clean white lid character.
- Cool-weather red spotting on otherwise-white lids in 2023.
- Mike anticipates a red throat would dramatically improve the look if it develops.
Cultivation notes
Still small as of mid-2023. Compared in-thread to Mike's similarly- named 'Ellie's Sibling' moorei.
Standout traits
- Lid is unusually pristine white — distinct enough to draw attention.
- Cool 2023 weather caused some red spotting on the lids — would otherwise be perfectly white.
- Mike interested in seeing if a solid red throat develops to add contrast.
Cultivation
Currently small / immature. Mike treating this as an observation entry pending vegetative maturity.

Naming
Descriptive — Mike's kids Ellie and Benny pick this clone out for how white the lid is. The name is informal/observational; Mike is keeping watch as it matures.
