How does this Venus fly trap work?

  • The plant’s traps feature hair-like sensors that close when touched multiple times, ensuring it only captures suitable prey.
  • Once closed, digestive acids break down the insect, absorbing nutrients to fuel the plant’s growth.
  • Traps take 5-12 days to reopen after digestion and can only function a few times before becoming inactive.

Caring for your Venus fly trap

Q: How should I water my Venus fly trap? A: Always use rainwater or distilled water, as tap water can harm the plant. Keep the soil moist by placing the pot in a tray filled with 1-2cm of water.

Q: Can it survive winter? A: Yes, the plant enters dormancy in winter. Reduce watering and move it to a cool, frost-free location like a greenhouse or porch. It will regrow in spring.

Q: Is it safe for children? A: Absolutely! The Venus Fly Trap is an educational and fascinating plant, perfect for teaching kids about nature and carnivorous plants.

Venus Flytrap FAQ

Why do some traps turn black?

  • Traps can be triggered during transit, causing the head to go black - but don’t worry, new ones will grow!

Spring & Summer care

  • Water from below by placing the pot in a saucer filled with 2.5cm (1in) of rainwater.
  • Never fertilise - Venus Flytraps catch all the food they need on their own.
  • For an extra boost, leave the plant outside for a few days in summer to hunt naturally.
  • Cut off any flower stalks to keep the plant strong and ensure larger traps.

Autumn & Winter care

  • Expect some leaves to die back as the plant enters winter dormancy - this is normal!
  • Reduce watering and only keep the soil slightly damp by letting the tray dry before refilling with 1cm of rainwater.
  • Trim dead foliage to keep the plant tidy.
  • Move indoors to an unheated greenhouse, porch, or cool room for its winter rest.
  • Plants are hardy down to 0°C and will start growing again in late February.
  • Once growth resumes, place on a sunny windowsill and stand in a tray of rainwater again.
