population multi clone locality

Mike's Jackson Co montana population — distinct from Transylvania Co. Yellowish-green flava-like hue, lighter colors, longer symmetrical traps. Some individuals turn solid purple in full sun.

Standout traits

  • Yellowish-green hue (flava-like) — unusual for montana (Mike, post #1, 2015)
  • Some individuals turn solid purple in full sun
  • Long symmetrical traps — atypical (most montanas are squat and dense)
  • Less veined than Transylvania Co plants (admin observation, post #2, 2015; Mike confirms post #3)
  • Larger traps from small rhizomes — potential for big mature pitchers
  • Internal veins still spectacular in some individuals — breeding utility
  • Lighter colors than other montana populations
  • Diverse seedling batch (Mike, post #4, 2019): 'Lots of diversity in color combinations, shapes, and curvature of the hood, and there isn't a single bad looking one in the batch'

Cultivation

  • Outdoor Northern California.
  • Multi-clone tray; multiple growth-form variants tracked.
