- First described
- 2014
- Type
- single clone from population
A Mike-acquired Baldwin Co leucophylla — explicitly not an alba, not a chameleon. Mike posted it in 2014 as an example of an unflashy clone he had grown to appreciate for its veining and the way white extends a short distance below the mouth. Single-photo-set documentation; no follow-up.
Standout traits
- Not alba — Mike (post #1, 2014): 'just your every day S. leucophylla. This one won't turn solid white in the throat'
- Attractive veining + white extension partway down the trap
- Distinguished from chameleon-alba clones (which start veined and become solid white) — this clone retains its veining year-round
Cultivation
- Outdoor Northern California.
- 2014-09-12 single-photo-set documentation; no follow-up updates.
- Mike speculates the white may extend further down the trap with time but doesn't confirm in this thread.

Naming
Mike's thread title is "An interesting yet typical S. leucophylla" — a non-alba, non-special clone Mike began to appreciate for its veining and the way white extends slightly down the trap.
