I have some of these Pitcher Plants in pots on my front porch presently.

Sarracenia alata clump of plants in habitat. Hillside bog, western Louisiana.

Flowers

An outstanding S. alata with burgundy colored inner pitcher and lid. Seen in an open savannah, southeastern Mississippi late June, 1992

Hillside seep bog in the Angelina National Forest in east Texas. This site was in desperate need of burning. Plants were in a declining condition with heavy overgrowth in summer 1992. Note reddish coloration in upper pitchers by summer
