Costa Farms Live Venus Flytrap, Carnivorous Plant Collection (3-Pack), Natural Indoor Pest Control, Exotic Predator Plants, Unique Home Decor

Venus Flytrap Live Plant is one of nature’s most fascinating carnivorous plants. Native to a small region of the coastal Carolinas in the southeastern United States, the Venus flytrap (Dionaea muscipula) has evolved specialized leaves that snap shut to capture insects. Each trap contains tiny trigger hairs that detect movement. When an insect touches the hairs, the trap closes quickly and begins digesting the insect to obtain nutrients not found in the plant’s native nutrient-poor soil. Venus flytraps grow best in bright light, including several hours of direct sun each day. A sunny windowsill, patio, or plant light setup works well indoors. Unlike most houseplants, Venus flytraps prefer consistently moist soil. They grow best when their pot sits in a shallow tray of distilled, rain, or reverse-osmosis water so the soil stays damp. Minerals found in regular tap water can build up in the soil and damage carnivorous plants. These remarkable plants naturally experience a winter dormancy period when growth slows and some traps die back. This rest period is normal and helps the plant produce fresh new growth in spring. With proper care, Venus flytraps can live for many years while continuing to capture insects naturally. Plants arrive in a nursery grower pot and are carefully packaged for shipping. Our growers hand-select the healthiest plants so they arrive fresh and ready to display in your home. Plants are living things; each one may vary slightly from the photo.
