Pitcher Plant• The Pitcher Plant is a
carnivorous plant. This means it does not make it’s own food, it eats insects.
• It’s shaped like a pitcher with brilliant colors to help trap insects and other creatures.
• The pitcher plant doesn’t touch the ground so it does not get the nutrients it needs to survive, therefore it has adapted to eating insects.

• The beautiful colored top leaf attracts the insects and other bugs.
• There are hairs that are inside the plant that the insect cannot climb against.
• Then the top leaf closes and the insect gets trapped in the fluid and drowns the bug.
