Also, the energy to make that flower is an enormous strain on the plant. Usually, growing that flower causes most or all of the carnivorous leaves to die, and therefore often growing that flower spells the death of the plant.

Interesting. I would imagine that the plant has a lot of energy since insects are way more rich in nutrients than light and water, no?
