I found a really nice stand of flavas and most of the seemed to be coppertops. Some seemed to have the copper coloration down the tubes. Is this common or even seen before?

The pitchers don't seem to do these plants justice, but here's some pics.

Those are marvelous! They look almost like they have a teeny tiny hint of a light colored rubricorpora in the pitcher and some rugelli in the mouth. The lid though is very distinctive of a cuprea. Whatever this plant is it's beautiful!
Good find!
 
Wow, beautiful plant.

I've always really liked the copper top form, so this is great.

I don't know how it works... Can you legally remove a patch of these for conservations sake?
 
Lovely plant! It would be a cool flava to own, but its probably better where it is.
 
They look pretty impressive.

Copper colouration extending down the tube isn't uncommon though really.
 
Well if you didn't live in antarctica you might see some.
