"Of those (seedlings of crosses) I have selected, my favourite is
[Sarracenia ' Daniel Rudd ' {Hort.Slack}].
A vigorous [Sarracenia catesbaei {Elliott}], in which [Sarracenia
flava {L.} var.maxima {Hort.Bull ex Mast.}] had been a parent, was
crossed with [Sarracenia leucophylla {Raf.}]. The best seedling
from this cross was then crossed again with [Sarracenia leucophylla
{Raf.}]. Most of the resulting seedlings were attractive, but one
was vastly superior to all others and seemed to possess every
quality for which I could have hoped, and subsequent trial has
proved it to have an excellent constitution. The upper pitcher and
hood are at first pleasantly marbled in light green, later becoming
tinted with coppery chestnut with darker veins, and they have the
advantage over most upright-pitchered kinds in that they often
open when the plant is still in flower. They are well shown in the
illustration, as are the abundantly produced , large, deep red
flowers. These are of outstanding quality, borne on long straight
stems, and may remain in petal for as long as twentyone days."

- B: R.Anfraix, Lyon, FR, from a batch of [Dionaea ' Fused Tooth ' {P.D'Amato}] plants, 2000
- Nominant: R.Anfraix
- Registrant: R.Anfraix, 13. 8. 2003

"Growing within this batch of plants was a small individual that differed
from the others by a regular fusion of only a few spines into each of its
teeth. The result was that each tooth was about 2 mm wide and was flattened
in cross section, in contrast with the normal capillary nature of typical
[Dionaea {L.}] plants. The tips of the teeth on this peculiar plant are
often are multiply divided, revealing the fused nature of the teeth. The
teeth are oriented normally, unlike the distorted positioning as is often
observed with [Dionaea ' Fused Tooth ' {P.D'Amato}]. (...)
Another peculiarity with [Dionaea ' Louchapates ' {R.Anfraix}] is exhibited
near the apex of the trap, opposite the petiole. In normal specimens of
[Dionaea {L.}], this region of the leaf lobe margins lacks spines. But in
[Dionaea ' Louchapates ' {R.Anfraix}], marginal teeth are present on both
lobes, all the way to the midpoint of the two lobe margins. This feature is
also seen in [Dionaea ' Cupped Trap ' {S.Stewart}], although that cultivar
also has trap that is cupped like a spoon.
After three years of cultivation, [Dionaea ' Louchapates ' {R.Anfraix}] has
undergone normal dormancies and has been propagated vegetatively. The
progeny are showing the same features as the parent plant.
This cultivar is not a member of the [Dionaea {L.}] Dentate Traps Group
since its teeth originate from a fusion of multiple marginal spines, and
are not short and triangular."

"But undoubtedly the most magnificient form is one recently
discovered in a jungle in Brunei, North Borneo, by Robert Cantley.
What appeared to be a group of toadstools from a distance proved on
closer inspection to be a colony of [Nepenthes ampullaria {Jack}],
the pitchers of which differed from all others in being of brilliant
crimson-scarlet sparingly mottled in green. To my mind this is one
of the most exciting and beautiful [Nepenthes {L.}] introductions of
recent years. It is of one clone, and its discoverer has kindly
allowed me to identify it with the varietal name of
[Nepenthes ' Cantley's Red ' {Hort.Slack}] (see overleaf)."
