The pitcher plant thrives in the understory because this shaded environment offers the humid conditions and filtered light that are ideal for its growth. In addition, the nutrient-poor soil found in these areas makes it difficult for many plants to survive, allowing the pitcher plant to capitalize on its unique adaptations for capturing insects to supplement its nutrient intake. The understory's consistent moisture levels also help maintain the water-filled structures of the plant, which are essential for trapping prey.
