    Discover the Venus Fly Trap, 'Rouge Sombre' - Special Import

    Meet the Dionaea muscipula Rouge Sombre, a captivating carnivorous plant that not only enhances your space but also brings a touch of the exotic to your home or garden. With its striking dark red traps and elongated teeth, this unique specimen is a conversation starter that will impress any plant enthusiast.

    Key Features:

    • Vibrant Appearance: The dark red traps are contrasted beautifully against green petioles, creating a stunning visual effect in any setting.
    • Adaptable Growth Conditions: Thrives in a variety of environments—outdoors, on windowsills, in terrariums, or greenhouses.
    • Optimal Sunlight: Requires full to very bright light to develop its best colors and ensure healthy growth.
    • Care Made Easy: Comes with a FREE CARE CARD to guide you through watering, feeding, and dormancy tips.

    Care Instructions:

    Watering: Keep soil evenly moist by using mineral-free water. The tray method ensures the right moisture level during the growing season.

    Light Requirements: Place your Venus Fly Trap in full sun for vibrant coloration and optimal health.

    Feeding: Allow the plant to catch its own prey; avoid feeding meat or cheese. It can capture insects even indoors!

    Dormancy: As winter approaches, the plant may enter dormancy—this is normal. Reduce watering and let it rest.

    Repotting and Maintenance:

    You won’t need to repot your plant upon receipt, but consider repotting during its dormancy period (May to July) every 1-2 years or when the growing medium develops an unpleasant odor. Use a soil specifically formulated for carnivorous plants.

    Important Note:

    Remove flower spikes in spring to prevent weakening the plant. Images showcased are representative of the species and may not depict the exact plant you will receive.

    Bring home the unique Venus Fly Trap, 'Rouge Sombre' and watch nature’s captivating predator thrive in your care!
