First one is a shrub/tree that is never really common anywhere but occasional in most areas, lots of colloquial names for it depending on where you find it

2nd one is occurs in parts of western La and especially the Florida Parishes, this is looking up at the flower it hangs down

Lake Chuck Duck 03-26-2012 09:52 AM

I am thinking some type of Iris....

Duck Butter 03-26-2012 11:37 AM

Plant #2 is found in bogs and it has a unique way of getting nutrients

#2 looks like a type of Iris, seems like I remember seeing them down in the Chenier marsh a lot

Is it a bladderwort?

Duck Butter 03-26-2012 11:53 AM

Bladderwort is on the right track

Pitcher Plants are cool man. Saw a pitcher plant bog on a field trip to Kisatchie in my soils class a few years ago.

beccrossee 03-26-2012 12:17 PM

I saw some red ones in a field ecology class near Corry,Pa. I also learned not to stand on cotton grass too long that day.

Around Abita Springs there are a few bogs that have the rare parrots' pitcher plants. The top of the plant comes to a point and looks like a parrots head
