They trap insects by using downward-pointing hairs near the top of the inner pitcher, that make it easy for insects to slide down into the pitcher, but difficult for them to crawl back up the walls. Pitcher plants can be found in the extremely alkaline habitats of marly fens, and are found in acidic peat bogs. 30 seeds.
