New plants identified

Hello. One small update about my new sarras. They have now been identified as S. x stevensii and S. x catesbaei x purpurea. Thanks for everyone who helped me identifying these plants.

New Sarracenia

Today I bought 2 new north American pitcher plants. Here both plants together


Sarracenia purpurea? Maybe Sarracenia purpurea subsp. venosa var. montana or Sarracenia purpurea subsp. venosa var. burkii if I'm not totally wrong.


Sarracenia hybrid including Sarracenia leucophylla. Maybe S. x readii(/S. x farnhamii) or possibly S. x moorei


Please post a comment if I'm wrong.

Happy growing!
