Can anyone identify some sarracenias for me? They are all from California Carnivores. I got my first one when I was young and didn't think to record the name of the cross. The others I got recently from a rhizome sale, but as part of the sale, they weren't labeled. Thank you for any help!

This is my first one:

And one of its flowers:

Here is the other one that has flowered:

Here are the rest:

Thanks again in advance!

The first one looks like sarracenia red bug

I thought that, too, but it has the "windows" of a S. leucophylla, it doesn't grow in the dense clumps, and it's pitchers get to be a foot and a half tall. My best guess is it is a S. minor x leucophylla of some sort, but I have no clue for the others.

Oh it does. Didn't notice that. It's probably minor x leucophylla.

The red one that flowered could be a S. "Dana's Delight".

Maybe alata, or rubrioperculata

That does look the closest to what it is.

If you are talking about the second-to-last photo, I think it is probably a young S. alata. It isn't of flowering size yet, so I can't look at it's flowers, which would help in identification.

Thank you again for all of your help.
