Description
Pitcher plant. "The insect-eating pitcher plant (Sarracenia purpurea L.) was adopted as Newfoundland and Labrador's floral emblem in 1954. It is the most unusual of Canada's official flowers. It was first chosen as a symbol of Newfoundland by Queen Victoria, to be engraved on the newly-minted Newfoundland penny."
