This pitcher would have opened last fall, and is just now dying down as a new crop of pitchers are being produced. Leucophylla pitchers tend to remain evergreen through winter unless the temperatures drop below freezing. In the spring time, you may see very large leucophylla pitchers, but these are almost always pitchers from a previous season. A small S. purpurea producing its very first mature pitcher. Two juvenile leaves can be seen growing to either side of the center.
Pitchers turn blood red with age.
The top pitcher hood was slightly frilled and and very wavy, making one wonder if there was a little S. leucophylla influence in this plant. My guess is that it is a pure S. purpurea, as the other leaves look very typically like a purpurea. This plant was growing under a tree which had fallen. The only way I found it was by spotting taller flower stalks through the branches of a few other plants growing alongside. The area is in need of some heavy rainfall.
