Cutaway view of a Sarracenia flower with anatomical parts labeled

Cutaway view of the flower of a carnivorous Sarracenia (North American pitcher plant) with anatomical parts labeled. The flowers have an elaborate design which prevents self-pollination. They are generally located well above the pitcher traps to avoid the trapping of potential pollinators.
