A couple more things in flower, an orchid and a sundew.

Calopogon tuberosus - easy to grow and flower. I started with just 2 tubers 4 years ago and now have around 10 plants.

Drosera filiformis, another southeasterner of the USA, feeling displaced, but not so unhappy it won't flower.

Mature pitcher on this unknown hybrid. I was calling it S. Dixie Lace, but I'm not so sure now. There definitely is S. minor in there, but I'm unsure of the other parents - very likely some S. purpurea and maybe someone else...

WOW!!! GReat pictures and gorgeous plants!!!

I got 2 drosera capensis some days ago and I would like to get a couple of pinguicula too! But the sarracenia (I think purpurea) that flowered does not produce the fat red veined pitchers it had last year, but thin green ones with a big "wing". Is it normal or there is something missing in conditions needed???? TY for any help!

More sun, as much as you can give them with 6+ hours optimal. These babies grow in full sun in the wild.
 
More than once I've heard the color is associated with pH.
Mine have also turned green, but I am unwilling to experiment.
