    Discover the Unique Venus Fly Trap, 'Cup Trap'

    Introducing the extraordinary Venus Fly Trap, 'Cup Trap', a special import that will captivate any plant lover with its striking features and fascinating behavior. This lower-growing Dionaea variety showcases dark red, cup-shaped traps adorned with fine, delicate teeth, making it a stunning addition to your indoor or outdoor space.

    Key Features:

    • Distinctive Appearance: The unique dark red "cup" traps provide a visually appealing aspect that will stand out in any collection.
    • Adaptable Growth: Thrives in various conditions including outdoors, windowsills, terrariums, and greenhouses; even tolerates light frost.
    • Light Requirements: Prefers full to very bright light, which enhances its vibrant colors.

    Care Instructions:

    • Watering: Keep the soil evenly moist using mineral-free water such as RO, distilled, or rainwater. Employ the tray method for optimal growth.
    • Dormancy: As temperatures drop, expect dormancy; it may appear to die back, but it's a natural process. Reduce watering during this time.
    • Feeding: Let the plant catch its own prey. Monthly feeding is ideal; avoid meat or cheese to ensure its health.
    • Repotting: Recommended every 1-2 years during winter dormancy, using a medium specifically for carnivorous plants.

    Why Choose the 'Cup Trap'?

    This Venus Fly Trap not only serves as a conversation starter but also offers a unique opportunity to observe nature's wonders as it captures insects. With minimal care and appropriate conditions, you can enjoy the beauty and intrigue of this carnivorous plant for years to come.

    Don't miss the chance to add this remarkable species to your collection. Price is for a single, potted plant in a plastic container. Please note that plant images are representations and may vary from the product received.

    Love the plant

    Beautiful flytrap. Caught a fly on its own within 20 minutes after unboxing it. Was very well packaged. Thanks!

    Awesome mutated traps

    Plant is healthy and unique, though quite small still. Will grow much more after dormancy. Awesome addition to the collection.

    Expectations Exceeded

    As with my previous purchases from Bonsai Tree, the 'little' critter-eater I received was very well-protected for transport and arrived healthy & safe. A wonderful addition to my Death Garden at home. I will most definitely be buying more bug-busting plants from Bonsai Tree in the future!

    Just want to cuddle her

    Her traps look like they are finished off with beautiful fine lace, sown delicately around the very edges. Captivating colours which almost change when you turn her in the sun. Love her, love her, love her ❤️

    Grrrrrr

    I can see why this was named Werewolf. It's traps honestly look like a dog snarling and growling at you. Absolutely magnificent specimen and a must have to any enthusiasts collection.
