And I plopped then into some lfsm, I'll spray some fungicide tomorrow...

That sucks. That remaining part of the plant does not look that hot either :(. What plant is it?

Depends on the subsp. Alabamensis can reach over a foot. Same with subsp. wherry and rubra. Wherry chatoms giant can get large, over 2 feet tall. Gulfensis also gets tall, some clones being over a couple of feet.

Any flowers yet? I have a few coming up. It's a shame I don't know what any of my plants look like.

This is how it looks when it darkens up a little, eventually the white degrades into a dark pink except for the bigger spots

Image
The Leuco's growth seems to be straightening out

Image

Image

Look at all the new growth points for the HCW Clone A, the forming pitcher is from a separate plant than the first

Image
This is the Oreo that had its pitchers stolen from the campus greenhouse but has since been relocated to home

Image
And here's a nice Rosea x OP showing it's waking up

Speaking of the other plant, this is its flower slowly coming along (see if you can spot the second one in the back)

The Daina's Delight x Rosea is sending up a second wave of pitchers

Finally some healthy looking growth on this Rosea x OP, it was starting to worry me there :)
