Sarracenia purpurea ssp. venosa var. venosa, Southern Purple Pitcher Plant (Georgia variant), cultivated plants, Atlanta Botanical Garden, Atlanta, Georgia

The Georgia variant is one of the most spectacular variants of Sarracenia purpurea. This variant in the wild in Georgia is restricted to several small populations at one locality and is perhaps the most imperiled of pitcher plants in Georgia.

 

Conservation plants grown in assurance colonies for species preservation and future replanting.
