Dionaea muscipula Pink Venus
Venus Fly Trap Pink Venus
Description
Dionaea muscipula 'Pink Venus' is a captivating cultivar of the Venus flytrap, prized for its unique pink-tinged traps. This carnivorous plant is famous for its ability to capture insects with a snap of its hinged leaves. The traps develop a pink hue under strong sunlight. The plant thrives in bog-like conditions, with acidic, nutrient-poor soil and high humidity. Provide the plant with distilled water or rainwater, as tap water can harm it. Place the plant in a sunny location, but it will need protection from direct, scorching sunlight in the heat of the summer. Only feed it small insects, as it is a slow-growing plant. It requires a dormancy period in winter with cooler temperatures to thrive, as they naturally do in their native environments. Be aware of the unique care requirements of carnivorous plants.
