Default Plant ID Quiz
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

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

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

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
