The apex of the leaf is modified to the lid of pitcher in pitcher plant. Pitcher plants are basically a type of carnivorous plants which have modified leaves known as pitfall traps. It have a prey-trapping mechanism featuring a deep cavity filled with digestive liquid. The traps of what are considered to be "true" pitcher plants are formed by specialized leaves.
