sarracenia purpurea ssp. purpurea

Sarracenia purpurea ssp. purpurea Wellington Co, ON (neon-green-edged clone)

Wellington Co, ON, Canada

First described: 2012
Type: single clone locality

Origin

Wellington County, Ontario S. purpurea ssp. purpurea. The clone is in Mike's collection and also in his friend Drew Martinez's collection — both growers see the same neon-green outer-edge coloration, which is Mike's argument that the trait is genetic rather than environmental (post #1, 2012).

History

Pre-2012: Mike acquires the clone (date unspecified).
2012-09-04 (post #1): first forum documentation.

Standout traits

Neon-green outer-edge color, reproducible across two growers' conditions.

Cultivation notes

[MISSING] — no specific care advice in the thread.

Photos

5 Mike-Wang photos from September 2012, including one tray-wide shot showing the Wellington clone visibly distinct from neighboring purpureas.

Standout traits

Neon-green color on the outer edge of the pitcher — produced consistently across multiple growers' conditions, indicating a genetic trait
Distinctive enough to stick out in a community of mixed-clone purpureas (Mike, post #1, 2012)

Cultivation

[MISSING] — single-page thread, no detailed cultivation commentary. Standard ssp. purpurea care implied.

Naming

Locality designation only. The clone's distinctive neon-green outer-edge phenotype is reliably reproducible — Mike's friend Drew Martinez grows the same clone and observes identical coloration, supporting a genetic (not environmental) basis.
