#Florida Panhandle / #Gulf (of Mexico) Coast #CarnivorousPlants
Not carnivorous but very poisonous plant that seems to colocate with pitchers...
I finally identified these beautiful flowering racemes that remind me of skyrockets going up. Stenanthium densum known as "Osceola's Plume" or "Crowpoison" (because they are actually very poisonous). The flowers bloom from the base upward. As they age they turn pink and finally maroon. This is a very nice visual effect!
