Jay,
I was looking though a book on Texas wild flowers and came
upon an entry for Cobra Lilies! There was no picture but the
discription was of Darlingtonia. They should have been writing
about S.alata but that wasn't even mentioned. I wonder how
many people have been looking for these Texan Cobra Lilies?
