How might Plants produce flames?

We all know of plants that draw in animals with sweet nectar or even just sit around hoping an insect will sit on it and get caught, but I'm imagining a forest dimly lit by the flickering flames of a plant that tried to attract moths for consumption. These plants are then harvested by those who dwell in the forest for their fuel.
How would a plant produce a small flame (what chemical process would need to occur) and how would it prevent itself from being burned by it?
