Pale pitcher plants and Royal fern, Pitcher Plant Trail, Turkey Creek Unit, Big Thicket National Preserve, Tyler County, April 2016
I had a permit for this area but these plants were not easy to access. I could swear sometimes you end up walking uphill both ways.

I really like this species of pitcher plant. Its delicate, creamy-yellow color contrasts with the bright yellow-green of the earlier-blooming Sarracenia flava.
Grown for the North American Sarracenia Conservancy (www.nasarracenia.org) to maintain distinct genetic lineages in cultivation.

In Louisiana, the Longleaf Pine savanna is a specialized habitat where it is intermixed with boggy places where pitcher plants and other carnivorous plants dwell. The habitat is very threatened, but fortunately, this very special spot is being protected by the Nature Conservancy!
Chapman's fringed orchid and Pale pitcher plant, Geraldine Watson Preserve, Warren, Tyler County, July 2012
These are the photos from my first day at the Preserve.
The unusual lid morphology is suggestive of Sarracenia leucophylla in this and one other photo. Both plants occurred within 20 feet of each other.
