Notes on Sarracenia subspecies

The two red pitcher-plants.-Nearly 50 years ago I observed in upland North Carolina a red-flowered Pitcher-plant differing strikingly from the lowland Sarracenlia rubra Walt.: the leaves were much larger and sparser, and the scent of the likewise larger flowers was but faint, instead of intensely rose-like. It was duly named in honor of Dr. Frank M. Jones, the foremost authority on pitcher-plant insects, Sarracenma jonesii. (1).
