Dionaea muscipula Cross Teeth
venus fly trap
Description
Dionaea muscipula 'Cross Teeth' is a distinctive Venus flytrap cultivar. It gets its name from the arrangement of its teeth, which form a unique cross-like pattern along the edges of its traps. This gives the traps a distinctive appearance, setting it apart from other cultivars. Like all Venus flytraps, 'Cross Teeth' is a carnivorous plant. 'Cross Teeth' requires a sunny location and a substrate with good drainage, typically a mixture of peat moss and perlite. To ensure its health, avoid tap water and feed the traps small insects occasionally. The plant benefits from a dormancy period during the winter months.
