Origin

Wild-source population from Old Dock, Columbus Co, NC. Mike's earliest documentation is 2012-05-19. Includes multiple visually-distinct clones that Mike maintains together but tags separately when photographing.

History

  • 2012-05-19 — Mike's first thread post; population overview
  • 2012-06-10 — second update with explicit Clone A, pink-windowed clone, and red-headed clone photos
  • 2014-07-25 — un-named clone with extensive windows added — Mike notes "out of the entire population of individuals, this plant produces the largest windows"
  • 2021-07-31 — population recovery after multi-year unrepotted neglect; introduces the 'wha-DAYAMN' clone (Mike's caption)
  • 2022-06-16 to 2022-08-16 — strong spring/summer pitchers
  • 2024-07-16 — Clone A solo update; extensive windows documentation

Standout traits

  • True var. minor — short stature
  • Multi-clone tray with at least 4 distinct named-or-described clones
  • Mature window-development on Clone A and the 'un-named' clone

Cultivation notes

Outdoor Northern California. Recovered from multi-year unrepotted neglect in 2021; current cultivation 2022-2024 is strong.

Photos

Ten Mike-source photos imported, 2012-2024. See photos[].

Standout traits

  • Multi-clone diversity within the population — Mike documents Clone A, a 'pink windowed' clone, a 'red-headed' clone, and an 'un-named clone' with extensive windows
  • True var. minor short stature — distinct from var. okefenokeensis Ware Co giants
  • Clone A: extensive trap windows, very white when mature (Mike, post #18, 2024-07-16)
  • 'Wha-DAYAMN' un-named clone with the brightest windows (post #13, 2021-07-31)

Cultivation

Outdoor Northern California. Mike notes (post #13, 2021-07-31) the population went without transplanting for many years before recovering with new pots in 2021.
