Venus flytrap

How to care

Dionaea muscipula, commonly known as the Venus flytrap, is a carnivorous plant native to subtropical wetlands. It thrives in bright, indirect sunlight and requires a high humidity environment. The plant captures insects with its modified leaves, which act as traps. It is essential to use distilled or rainwater for watering, as tap water can harm the plant.
