Dionaea Muscipula – The Iconic Venus Flytrap
Add a legendary carnivore to your plant collection with Dionaea muscipula, the world-famous Venus Flytrap. Recognized for its jaw-like traps lined with spiky "teeth" and lightning-fast snapping action, this compact insect-catcher brings botanical drama and function together in one fierce package.
Organically grown at TOMs FLOWer CLUB, this established Venus Flytrap comes planted directly in a clear glass vase (Ø 14 cm, height 13 cm) without a drainage hole, maintaining the consistently moist conditions that mimic its native bog habitat. The plant is potted in a nutrient-poor, peat-based carnivorous mix, with no fertilizer used – just as nature intended.
This species thrives in full sun to very bright light and prefers an outdoor spot in spring and summer like a sunny balcony or garden nook. To ensure longevity, the Venus Flytrap requires a winter dormancy period in a cool, frost-free location.
Water only with rainwater or distilled water – never tap water, which can harm the plant due to mineral build-up.
An eye-catching, interactive plant that doubles as a natural pest control agent. With proper care, your Dionaea can live for many years and even multiply by division.
You’ll receive the exact plant in the pictured size and setup – organically cultivated with care and character at TOMs FLOWer CLUB.
