Know before you buy
Yes. Every 'Phalanx' specimen listed is photographed individually, so the plant you see in the image is the exact one that will be shipped to you.
Yes. Venus Flytraps require nutrient-poor, acidic soil, such as a mix of sphagnum peat moss and perlite. Your plant arrives already potted in the correct medium, so you do not need to repot it upon arrival.
You can, provided the windowsill receives very bright, indirect light for several hours a day. If your indoor space lacks sufficient natural light, you may need to supplement with a dedicated grow light to keep the plant healthy.
Carnivorous plants are sensitive to minerals found in tap water. You must use distilled water, reverse osmosis water, or collected rainwater to prevent damage to the plant's root system.
Like all Dionaea muscipula, the 'Phalanx' cultivar requires a winter dormancy period where growth slows significantly. During this time, the plant needs cooler temperatures and slightly less light to rest before the spring growing season.
Yes, the plant is shipped fully established in its 3.5-inch square pot. It is ready for immediate display once you unbox it.
