In "The Savage Garden", Peter says something about Slack's "incorrectly
named" cultivar S. flava "Maxima" with blue/gray coloring in the lower
pitchers. What is the correct name? Is it really just a cultivar or
just a characteristic of a locality? I ask because I have a S. flava
grown from seed that originated from Walton County, Florida, and it
shows this same blue/gray coloring in the lower pitchers. The pitchers
are very stocky and shorter than my other flavas, but the rhizome is
much larger. It's still a young plant though (maybe 4 years old), so
it's hard to tell how tall it will eventually get.
