Everyone know and seen the Pitcher Plant before i believe.
It's Scientific name is: Nepenthes Gracilis
Family name being: Nepenthaceae
How does this plant survive in environments offering only poor nutrition? The tips of leaves develop into a 'pitcher'. Nectar stores on the underside of the phitcher lid produce a sugary solution which attracts insects, usually ants, which occasionally fall into the pitcher & drown in the fluid inside. When the insects rot, it produce nutrients to be absorbed by the plant.
However, Pitchers may be possible breeding areas for mosquito larvae, which can be prevented by stuffing with cotton wool or have insecticide dropped in periodically.
