A pitcher plant is a carnivorous plant known for its unique shape, resembling a pitcher or urn, which is designed to trap and digest insects. The plant features a modified leaf structure that forms a deep cavity filled with digestive fluids, attracting prey with its nectar and bright colors. Once insects fall into the liquid, they are unable to escape and are broken down by enzymes. Pitcher plants thrive in nutrient-poor environments, using this method to supplement their nutrient intake.
