Numéro d’image : 12644794
| Yellow pitcher plant, Sarracenia alata, in bloom. Also known as pale pitcher plant. This species of pitcher plant grows in permanently wet and open wetlands typically classified as longleaf pine (Pinus palustris) savannas. Pitcher plants capture insects by luring them to the mouth of the trap with colour, nectar, and scent. Once they land on the lip, the insects slips on the waxy inner surface and slides down the funnel, eventually ending up in the bottom of the pitcher where they drown in fluid the contains digestive enzymes. The digestive enzymes decompose the body so it can be absorbed, leaving only the exoskeleton. It can be found from south western AL to east TX. Photo: Angelina Co., TX. | |
