Sarracenia flava var. cuprea, "Copper Top" variant of Yellow trumpet pitcher plant in habitat, Blackwater River State Forest, Okaloosa County, Florida

Very rare variant in the FL panhandle. This variant is most commonly encountered on the Atlantic coast of the Carolinas.

 

Arguably, this phenotype expression is likely the result of S flava rugellii x S flava ornata cross-pollination and is not a stable reproducing variant as seen in the Carolina populations.
