Dionaea muscipula G14 Dirk Venthams Giant
venus fly trap
Description
Dionaea muscipula 'G14 Dirk Venthams Giant' is a truly impressive Venus flytrap cultivar, admired for its exceptionally large traps. This giant form showcases traps that are significantly larger than those of the standard Venus flytrap, often exceeding the size of a quarter. Its traps are typically green, but can develop reddish coloration under strong sunlight, adding to their visual appeal. It is a carnivorous plant, that is also extremely capable of snapping closed upon detecting prey, like other flytraps. Its unique characteristics require specific growing conditions, including well-draining, acidic soil, and consistent watering with distilled or rainwater. It thrives under bright light conditions and experiences a period of dormancy during winter. Providing ample sunlight and the right soil will maximize the size of the traps, and promote healthy plant growth.
