Venus Fly Trap 'B52'

The 'B52' is prized for its size. It produces significantly larger traps than the common variety, often reaching up to two inches across, and features distinctively long, vibrant red teeth that make it a standout specimen.

No, tap water contains minerals that will eventually kill your plant. You must use distilled water, rainwater, or reverse osmosis water to keep the soil free of mineral buildup.

During winter, your Venus Fly Trap will naturally slow its growth and may lose some of its traps. To support this, place the plant in a cooler area with less light for a few months, keeping the soil just barely damp rather than soaking wet.

While the Venus Fly Trap is not considered poisonous if ingested, it is generally listed as toxic to cats and dogs. It is best to keep this plant in a location that your pets cannot easily access.

Not necessarily. If kept outdoors or in a bright, open window, it will likely catch enough prey on its own. If you are keeping it in a sealed environment, you can occasionally feed it a small, live insect, but do not force-feed it, as the traps can be damaged by overfeeding.

Venus Fly Traps are bog plants by nature and require consistently moist soil to thrive. The New Zealand long-fiber sphagnum moss included in your kit is excellent at retaining the necessary moisture levels without compacting.
