Dionaea muscipula Fondue
Venusfliegenfalle
Description
Dionaea muscipula Fondue, another cultivar of the Venus flytrap, is known for its unique coloration and trap shape. The 'Fondue' variety often exhibits a rich, reddish hue, particularly in its traps, which can intensify under bright light. This carnivorous plant, like other Venus flytraps, captures insects with its hinged traps. These traps are triggered by small hairs that detect movement. They require acidic, nutrient-poor soil, similar to their natural habitat in the Carolinas. They are a wonderful addition to any carnivorous plant collection. They need ample sunlight and are often grown in bogs. Provide mineral-free water. They require a dormancy period, usually during winter.
