A Georgia grassland, sparsely populated with pine trees, offers a comfortable habitat for the hooded pitcher plantsThe inner surface of the hood is heavily lined with red veins, making the hood appear bright red when seen from down under against the blue sky.  The white patches on the upper back of the pitcher help brighten the pitcher interior.
