This version is green on the outside and can get a nice red coloring on the inside. A cool little bug-eating live plant it is one of the "fastest" reacting and moving plants on earth. Similar to most plants the Venus Flytrap gathers nutrients from the air and soils, but since they adapted to a poor soil environment they gathered nutrients from trapping insects. It attracts bugs with its sugary syrup and once the trigger hairs get bent it will close on the prey and has a digestive enzyme to convert that prey into fertilizer. The Venus Flytrap belongs to the carnivorous plants native to subtropical wetlands on the East Coast USA. It loves being in a pot full of damp sphagnum moss and can handle bright to part-shade lighting. The traps range in size from 1/16 inch to an inch long or longer depending on the plant. Please ensure the sphagnum moss is kept wet at all times and mist the plant twice a day with rain or distilled water as it loves humidity.
Black traps?! Don't worry, there are several reasons and it may be part of the natural cycle of a trap that has already digested plenty. If you have received yours and some of the traps have turned black you can just pick them off. So long as the plant is continuing to put out new growth to replace the old traps you can remove all the dead parts as this is part of the normal part of the plant's lifecycle.
If all the traps are turning black then it can be due to poor lighting or water problems as one needs to use distilled or rainwater only. Do not add fertilizer to the soil or the sphagnum moss as it will hurt the plant, they need nutrient-poor soil.
These plants thrive in humid environments and should only be watered with distilled or rainwater. They are sensitive to minerals, fluoride, and chlorine, which can cause yellowing or browning of their leaves. Additionally, avoid using regular soil, as it's too rich in nutrients for them. Instead, we offer Sphagnum Moss, which is the ideal medium for their growth. No regular soil is suitable. They prefer bright light. Fluorescent or other cool-temperature grow lights can be used for the indoor cultivation of smaller species. A terrarium of smaller carnivorous plants under such lights can make a great starter set-up.
Whether kept indoors or outdoors, there’s no need for regular feeding. They will naturally catch gnats or flies from the air, which provides them with the nourishment they need to stay healthy and vibrant.
Available in the following packaging based on your preference:
- Nursery Pot - Standard plastic 2-inch planter pot that can be placed inside a larger pot or left as is until it outgrows it.
We recommend you check our bundles for better pricing on the 2" nursery pot.
