Whether that means it is the Heavy Red veining form of Rubicorpora or whether it means it was mislabelled as a veined Flava var Flava form due to being grown in too little sunlight...
I don't really know. Still, Rubicorpora definitely.

Is there any chance I could buy one of these sarracenia off you or some seed/lings.

I just divided the very plant pictured (it was a lot bigger than that, thats an old picture).
I have about 20 or so pots of it, all at least medium or large plants, but mostly single growing points, many of which will soon flower.
I haven't figured the pricing on these guys yet but I can definitely spare a nice plant for sale, if you are attending the September meeting I can bring one down then as I intend to be there.
Otherwise you can email me and we can reach some other arrangement or drop by the nursery some time.

Talk about growing sarra's to perfection,flava would have to be my favourite sarra.

I agree, S. flava is also my favourite!

Matthew, it is a beautiful plant! When I see clones like this, I wish I hadn't given all my Sarras away. I'm not so sure that it is rubricorpora though. Shouldn't it have a red lid? I'm not so sure that the S. flava complex should have been divided as it was. I grew hundreds of S. flava from wild collected seed and the variation was unbelievable. No two plants were the same even though they came from populations that were pure.
Flava are my favourite Sarracenia too - so much so, that I have some 40 different clones of this species alone. I grow about 7 different clones of flava var. rubricorpora, but I don't think I have this one. If anyone got this clone from Matthew, and have spares, please let me know - I understand his nursery (Arcadia Lillies) lost all their Sarracenia in the last few years.
