That's awesome! Where was this? So, was there a flood, and the log washed out of the bog into the lake?

That's a really cool "plantation", it sure looks like D intermedia to me, too. Is the log "rooted" or just drifting? Really neat pics either way, even the non-cp one has a nice composition going on

There was no flood. and yes this is a floating log, but it was not drifting free. It was trapped by the marshy bottom and plants. It was near Pary Sound. The leaves on these plants are at least 3 times bigger than any intermedia that I grow or have seen in The Bruce area or Sifton bog or in New Found Land or in Yukon etc.

Can you explain how you got there? I'll be near Parry Sound for about 5 days in about 3 weeks and would love to do the same trip you did PM me if you can provide details as they'd be really appreciated!!!

The red on it is enough to prove there's anthocyanin in it, so it is a regular S. purpurea ssp. purpurea, although it does have an interesting shape thanks to the "substrate" and lack of sphagnum overgrowth

That is a Necky. www.neckykayaks.com/kayaks/day_touring/manitou_14.shtmlMy daughter was in a yellow one-- which can be seen in one of the pictures. The Sars. P.P. in the area looked like normal pitcher plants but the sundews looked like they are a hybrid. There are clumps of round leaf and intermedia in the area and then these special ones. There were at least 3 different areas with the special ons! I am reluctant to give out the location publicly ;D Doug Stewart

The sundew looks like D. x belesiana (rotundifolia x intermedia) and would explain the abnormally large size (hybrid vigor).
