Text on reverse of card reads:
Nepenthes mirabilis, commonly known as the “common pitcher plant,” is a carnivorous plant native to coastal regions stretching from southern China to Australia. It is a member of the Nepenthaceae family and is known for its unique pitchers, which are used to trap and digest insects. The pitchers of Nepenthes mirabilis are shaped like elongated tubes with a lid on top. The inside of the pitcher is lined with a slippery surface that causes insects to fall in and become trapped. The plant then secretes enzymes that digest the insects, allowing it to absorb nutrients.
