At Mendon Ponds Park, there is a bog next to one of the trails. I've seen purple pitcher plants (Sarracenia purpurea ssp. purpurea) and round leaf sundews (Drosera rotundifolia). The reason there are no pics of the round leaf sundews on this page is because these pics are from when I visited the bog in fall, and the sundews were dormant under the moss for winter . Here are the pics:
