Here a few pics of my Sarracenia purpurea in a bog next to my 300 gal pond. we live 500 miles north of Vancouver BC, I've had it for 3 seasons and it survived -30c and the long winters we have, I cover it with a burlap sack in the winter.
Thats not S. purpurea spp. purpurea f. heterophylla, yhou can see some red venation in the pitcher hoods and necks. It does need a tad more sunlight though, not much, maybe a 2-3 hours increase.
It looks like the type of purpurea that do have veination. It's visible on the one at the far left too. 500 miles north of Vancouver is a little far up there. Perhaps the sunlight isn't strong enough?
You guys don't have a clue about the weather in Canada, we have about 4 months of 25c and above weather, 30c to 35c for about 3 weeks, we are in zone 4 to 5 for plants. NOT ENOUGH SUNLIGHT HA HA!!!!
