The trap of the Venus Flytrap is one of Nature's most amazing marvels. The outer edges of the two clamshell-like halves are lined with nectar glands and stout bristles.
This is an unusual plant that looks very different from any of the other Sarracenia. The pitchers have what almost looks like a beak above the small mouth of the pitcher, hence the common name Parrot Pitcher Plant.
The most well known species of carnivorous plants. Traps have a limited number of false alarms. Don't stimulate them too often. Artificially springing the trap drains the plant's energy.
