Hmm... I don't have permission to access that link on this server. But looking at cpphotofinder: you're right, it looks exactly like that. How would that have gotten labelled 'Dana's Delight'? A throwback grown from seed? (I bought them as one clump and divided it.) Thanks very much for the `Scarlet Belle`info, petmantis, you`ve hit the nail on the head and saved me a lot of web- surfing-dogpaddling on dial-up.

It sure is. I never thought much of the psittacinas I've seen in photos. Their prostrate form always gives them a kind of squashed appearance. The 'Scarlet Belle's have a nicely mounded shape, though. Very pretty.

I've been long overdue for an update on my growlist for a while. So, here's what I'm growing inside this winter. (I actually started a bog garden this past summer, so most of the Sarrs and VFTs I had--as well as the d.filliformis I grew from seed that Lloyd sent me (thanks, Lloyd! They looked great)--are underneath a snowbank right now.)
I still have the neps and the H.minors, among other things. I divided one of the helies back in August and got five plants from it, one of which subsequently flowered, which was a first for me with helies. Another has multiple growth points and a third was just a couple of pitchers and a nub of root when it broke off accidentally. I stuck it in a seedtray and it's still holding on. I'm expecting it to throw out its first new pitcher any week now (okay, I've been expecting that for months, but it's gonna happen sometime, right?)
Well, on to the inventory:
Dionaea: typical x4 and red form x1
Ceph: typical x1
Ping: weser x2 gigantea x1
Heli: minor x6
Nep: ventricosa x3 ampularia x1 rafflesiana x1
Sarracenia: Scarlet Belle x1 purp. ssp. purp seedlings
Drosera: capensis narrow leaf, red and albino (lots) rotundifolia seedlings ordensis x1 adelae x1 pot binata x1 pot + seedlings intermedia (Cuba) x6ish capillaris x4ish nidiformis (too many to count) binata multifida extrema x1 mature (not as many as I'd like, future plans involving a large pot of them in the front garden in summer, but I've been taking leaf pullings, so we'll see how it goes.) aliciae x3 adults + seedlings.
Yeah... things have expanded a bit since my last growlist post. ;D
