There were a lot of them in the more watery areas:

Oh wow, nice. Did you happen to just spot them or were you on an expedition to find them?

Speaking as somebody just on my way home from a trip to Newfoundland, you'd have to try hard not to see pitcher plants there. A huge swath of the island has very poor soil, so there are carnivorous plants all over the place. I hiked the Tablelands trail in Gros Morne National Park and there were pitcher plants along the entire thing.

Alright, I had no idea. Very cool.

Just a walk in the forest, and there they were. I wasn't looking for them specifically.

Looks like a variety of sarracenia purpurea! I've never seen them in the wild, but I've grown them and love them. Also they'll eat flies, ants, and yellow jackets
