It was registered as a cultivar in June 2020 with a published description in the Carnivorous Plant Newsletter and beautiful specimen photo gracing the front cover. P. ‘Razzberry Blonde’ is a hybrid of P. gigantea, P. emarginata, and P. agnata.
Description
Size and packing method: Small plants are about 1 inch in diameter and large plants are 2-2.5 inches in diameter. Plants are shipped bare root, carefully wrapped in a damp paper towel. If selecting with soil mix, you will receive a little over one cup of our prepackaged Mexican Butterwort Potting Mix in addition to the bare root plant. This quantity of soil is roughly enough to fill one 2.5 x 2.5 x 3.5 inch square pot.
Growing requirements
Mature size: 3-4 inches in diameter
Light: Partial to full sun or grow light equivalent
Soil: Mexican Butterwort Potting Mix
Feeding: Feed bugs, dried bloodworms, fish food, or diluted foliar fertilizer such as Maxsea every 2-3 weeks

Water: While in its carnivorous phase, provide enough distilled water for the media to remain damp. Reduce watering and allow the media to dry out regularly once the succulent rosette begins to form.
Temperature: 55-85°F
Dormancy: Technically none, however carnivorous leaves are replaced by a smaller semi-succulent rosette for part of the year

Gorgeous plants – bought too many to upload pics of them all! But for reference, this is the L raspberry blonde! She is huge. All came in expertly packaged and are transitioning slowly via humidity domes to my ambient conditions. This seller also gives instructions on how to do this if you have never done it before — most don’t! I could have made my pings much happier years ago if I had known!
