King Henry Venus Fly Trap Carnivorous Plant - Dionaea muscipula

The Venus Fly Trap has hinged leaves with three to four sensitive hairs in the center of each lobe. When an insect touches the hairs, the hinge mechanism is triggered, and the leaves close rapidly to trap the insect.

• Average mature height: Under 6 inches
• Light: Full to part sun
• Soil: Grows well in peat, peat/perlite, or sphagnum moss. Place a tray of water underneath to keep the plant wet.
• Zones: 6-10

Plant Size
A baby plant, that is 1-4 inches tall, will arrive at your home in a 2-ounce pot (fly traps and sundews) or 3-inch-deep pot (pitcher plants). Then, raise your new baby to maturity under your caring, green thumb.

A few leaves or pitchers may die during shipping. No fear! It's still healthy and will grow new leaves. Trim old growth and repot into a larger pot to encourage new growth.
