We're uncertain of the full parentage of this plant since we grew it from seed randomly collected at our nursery. Based on its features - tall slender pitchers with a frilled hood that extends over the mouth and a dark interior - we suspect it could be S. Ruby Throat x minor. Since both plants are part of our collection. Regardless of the parentage, it's quite stunning. We named this plant after our employee's dog, Madeline, who has a rich brownish red coat.
