'red design'

Origin

Mike-bred seedling from a past intra-leuco red-clone cross. The tag recorded only "probably a cross between two different red leuco clones" — specific parents not preserved. Mike's first thought looking at the plant was Franklin Co, FL ("Frankie"), suggesting Franklin Co genes may be present [VERIFY].

Standout traits

  • Intricate red veining/patterning that prompted the "design" name.
  • Coloration described as artsy/sophisticated.

Cultivation notes

As of 2022-09-15, plant immature; Mike expected the traits to become more pronounced as traps grew to vegetative maturity.

Standout traits

  • Intricate red veining/patterning across the trap.
  • Unique coloration and patterns — Mike notes details become more remarkable as traps grow larger.

Cultivation

As of Sept 2022, immature — Mike expects bigger traps next year (2023+).

Naming

"red design" — Mike found the intricate veining "artsy fartsy", named it "DESIGN" to sound sophisticated/snobby ("Hey Darling, what do you think of this DESIGN?").
