How many petals does a pitcher plant have?

Answer 1

Pitcher plants typically do not have petals in the traditional sense, as they are carnivorous plants that have evolved unique structures for trapping prey. Instead of flowers with petals, they produce modified leaves that form a pitcher shape to attract and digest insects. Some species may produce flowers, but these are usually small and do not resemble typical petals. Therefore, the focus of pitcher plants is more on their trapping mechanisms rather than petal structures.
