The pitcher plant is a fascinating type of carnivorous plant known for its unique insect-trapping mechanism.
Its signature feature is a deep, vase-like leaf known as a pitcher, often adorned with vibrant colors and nectar to lure unsuspecting prey.
The rim, or peristome, is slippery and curved, causing insects to lose their footing and tumble inside.
Once inside, the insect is trapped in a pool of digestive enzymes or bacteria-rich fluid, where it is slowly broken down and absorbed.
In some instances, our photo may represent an overall theme or look and include a one-of-a-kind vase which cannot be exactly replicated.
Although the actual bouquet may not precisely match the photo, its temperament will. Occasionally, substitutions of flowers and/or containers happen due to weather, seasonality and market conditions which may affect availability. If this is the case with the gift you’ve selected, we will ensure that the style, theme and color scheme of your arrangement is preserved and will only substitute items of equal value or higher value.
If any design elements are of major importance to your order, please include them in the florist instructions at checkout or contact us to ensure availability.
