These are my hybrids, all purpurea crosses, my grow list is up for viewing, all were at least three years old when I bought them. I will have to split the pics into two posts. |

In the first picture, is that a sundew sticking out? Also, why do the plants change color so much as they get older? Beautiful plants!!

Yes that is a Drosera Capensis, they are all over my pots and have about twenty growing with other plants, as far as coloring I think it's just part of their genetics like roses or other flowers, it attracts food and pollinators, Thanks for the compliment, they are growing quite a bit now as opposed to most growing in the beginning of spring.

Indeed sarracenia have very big color changes as the pitchers are new and then get older, I may example with my daina's delight, this plant makes almost green leaves when growing and then they turn pinkish, then really magenta, and finally they loose the variegation to become dark magenta color, before drying up.   |
