Very close. Give that man half a cigar! It is a Sarracenia, but not that one, or at least it doesn't look like the RHS picture. To be honest, I've lost the plant label and can't remember what variety it is. For those who don't know, Sarracenia are Pitcher Plants. There are several species and hundreds, perhaps thousands, of varieties.According to the RHS it is Sarrcenia purpurea.

This time it's flower buds. I've had the plant for several years, this is the first time it has produced buds. Will they or won't they open? There are different opinions online. So what is it (preferably without using the G machine)?

All gone! It's Saturday 16th May and the seedhead is empty. The seeds fell onto the floor yesterday and are now safely in an envelope waiting to be sown and spend a summer on a sunny window ledge. All that is left is emptiness and an interesting shape .

Evening, shadows moving quickly, light catching seedheads, then a few seconds later just their tips...

Ouch!!! There's a serial number database on the other forum (link). It might be worth adding your serial numbers to the list.
Presumably you've reported the theft to the police? I doubt if they'll get the blue lights and sirens going for a camera, but if it's part of a pattern of thefts it might help them to find the culprit.

Looks like fun!
But no weather-beaten old tars with eye patch, scars on face, cutlass in hand and parrot on shoulder??
