Dionaea muscipula Short Teeth
venus fly trap
Description
Dionaea muscipula 'Short Teeth' is a cultivar of the Venus flytrap, distinguished by its uniquely formed traps. As the name implies, this variety features short, closely-spaced teeth along the edges of its traps. The plant still traps and digests insects, as it is carnivorous, like all Venus flytraps. The distinctive teeth contribute to the plant's appeal and appearance. Like all Venus flytraps, 'Short Teeth' needs an acidic, nutrient-poor soil and distilled or rainwater for irrigation. It needs several hours of direct sunlight, and requires a dormancy period during the winter. The aesthetic of the plant, makes it a prized addition to any carnivorous plant collection. The short, closely-spaced teeth make this plant stand out among other carnivorous plants.
