Atro Flower

RobBlog, Sarracenia

I received this S. flava var. atropurpurea from Mike Wang several years ago. What’s interesting about this flava flower is the blush in coloration. Typically, S. flava flowers are yellow. The color is probably due to something else going on back in the lineage. (S. purp genes somewhere in the mix?) Whatever it is, I like it.
