Sarracenia flava var. maxima - Tall All Green Copper Tinged, Reverse Veined

Description of Sarracenia flava var. maxima - Tall All Green Copper Tinged, Reverse Veined

The Sarracenia flava var. maxima plants have all green pitchers but are not anthocyanin-free like Sarracenia flava var. flava f. viridescens. Younger pitchers often show small amounts of colouration.

This S. flava var. maxima has a couple of traits that make it slightly more interesting. The pitchers have a copper-ish hue to them which is really lovely. They also have reverse veins which means the veination is paler instead of darker than the flava pitcher.

I originally bought this plant from James Stevens (JS-F67).

Important: do not confuse Sarracenia flava var. maxima with Sarracenia flava 'Maxima' (a.k.a. Slack's Maxima).
