Varietal Hybrids:
Unlike in the previous photograph,
the throat splotches on these plants are not as bold and continuous.
They are almost certainly hybrids between
Sarracenia flava var. rugelii and the all-green
Sarracenia flava var. maxima. We looked for plants that
we were certain were
Sarracenia flava var. maxima, but could not find any.
(We found several candidates, but could not rule out the possibility that
they were Sarracenia flava var. rugelii hybrids that had
not yet developed pigment.)
