Hi All. Today, in my bog I noticed that some of my intermedia are very red while others have more green stems. They are growing side by side in the bog so it wouldn't be light or water. They are from the same original stock but most of them are from seed. I'm not even sure that I have the original plants. What do you think? Do I have two genetic types?

It appears to be genetic variations in the population, like the different colors of flytraps.
