4.7 Store Rating

Mammoth Venus Fly Trap is a new variety, named for its large-growing traps. Since Mammoth is a hybrid created from three of the largest varieties, it's no surprise that the traps will grow to exceed the size of the traps on a regular Venus Fly Trap. You can grow this plant indoors or outdoors with great success as long as you provide bright light and a steady supply of distilled or rainwater in a shallow saucer underneath.

  • Size upon arrival: 1/2 to 1 inch tall
  • Water: Keep moist with distilled or rainwater in a shallow saucer underneath
  • Average mature height: 1 to 5 inches
  • Zones: 6-10
  • Light: Bright/Full sun
  • Soil: Peat/perlite blend or sphagnum moss

Four potted plants in increasing sizes are labeled: Promo (2-4 tall), Classic (3-8 tall), Premium (8-15 tall), and Supreme (8-25 tall), showing plant and pot dimensions for each size.

Introducing Premium & Supreme plants

We're expanding our product lineup with plants that need more space than our classic 2/3-cup pot allows.

Premium Plants come in a 3/4-quart pot and Supreme Plants come in a 3/4-gallon pot.

New Premium & Supreme Plants will release each Friday.

Shop with confidence

Your plants are packed with the utmost care, but shipping can be stressful on the little guys.

That's why you have 30 days from the arrival date to experiment with them. If they don't bounce back, you're eligible for a refund.

We sell baby plants

Wellspring Gardens is the starter plant, AKA “baby plant” shop. We just get you started, so you get all the credit for raising your plants under your green thumb.

How tall are baby plants?

We aim to ship your plants when they’re 3-8” tall, though we often ship them taller than that.

What determines whether I get a 3-, 6-, or even 18-inch-tall plant?

The exact size of the plant we send you is variable on the time of year and how long we've been growing it out.

Don't give your carnivorous plant fertilizer!

Carnivorous plants are adapted to receiving low soil nutrition. They consume bugs to compensate for it. If you try to bypass their nutrient delivery method, by using fertilizer — or tap water with a high particle count — it could harm your plant.

A potted Wellspring Gardens Cape Sundew Carnivorous Plant (Drosera capensis) with a green VG logo sits before a decorative box labeled 30 Day Guarantee, Easy to Grow, Non GMO—bright plant and water illustrations add a beginner-friendly vibe.
