Golden glow:
Aren't these plants just
fantastic? While almost completely lacking red venation, the general
blush of color throughout the leaves is still present. These plants
were an exquisite shade of orange. Look
how the pigmentation flows into the pitcher lip, too! Wow. (I used my
diffuser when taking this photograph.)
I think this might have been my favorite plant in the bog. I had
never before seen unveined plants like this, glowing orange.
By the way, let me tell you about my rental car. I had requested
a "compact" as usual, but when I picked up my vehicle they
supplied me with a big, bloated
Chrysler Town & Country. Oh please! This
exact same car-reassignment had occurred during a
North Carolina trip
just a few weeks earlier! Apparently,
I had some kind of weird monster-van-mojo
going on. Oh well, so much for the diminishing
oil fields: Drill away, President Bush, drill away!
