Pitcher Plant

Carniverous Pitcher Plant

The carniverous pitcher plant eats bugs. The pitcher plant has modified leaves that create a pitfall. When an insect is attracted to the carniverous plant by the plant nectar, it crawls into the leave and never comes out. At the bottom of the leave pit is digestive fluids that turn the bug into liquid for the plant digestion. This species of pitcher plant is a bog plant perfect for a terrarium.
