Venus Fly Trap 'Winter Green' 100mm nursery pot

Product Description

Looking for a plant that's guaranteed to start conversations? Meet the Venus Fly Trap 'Winter Green'—one of nature's most fascinating little predators.

Unlike many Venus Fly Trap varieties that slow right down through winter, 'Winter Green' continues growing for much of the cooler months, making it a fantastic choice if you want to enjoy your carnivorous plant for more of the year. Its bright green traps measure around 1–2cm across, sitting low on flat-growing foliage that creates a neat, compact display. During the warmer months, the traps can even develop a soft pink blush when grown in plenty of sunlight.

Whether you're adding something unique to your collection or introducing someone to the world of carnivorous plants, this one never disappoints.

Light
Loves full sun. The more direct sunlight it receives, the healthier and more colourful the traps become.

Watering
Keep the potting mix consistently moist using rainwater, distilled water or reverse osmosis water only. Avoid tap water, as minerals can build up over time and damage the plant.

Humidity
Enjoys moderate to high humidity but adapts well outdoors where humidity is naturally higher.

Temperature
Thrives outdoors in Australia's temperate climate. While 'Winter Green' continues growing through much of winter, it still appreciates seasonal temperature changes.

Growth Habit
Forms a compact rosette of flat-growing leaves with traps measuring approximately 1–2cm across. Traps remain green through winter and may develop soft pink colouring during summer in strong light.

Feeding
No need to feed it unless it's kept indoors without access to insects. It will happily catch its own meals when grown outside.

Pet Friendly?
Use caution. Venus Fly Traps are not considered highly toxic, but it's best to keep curious pets from chewing on the traps.

Good to Know
• 'Winter Green' is one of the few Venus Fly Trap varieties that remains actively growing for much of winter.
• Resist the temptation to trigger the traps for fun—each trap only opens and closes a limited number of times before naturally dying back.
• We photograph as many of our plants as possible, however some listings may occasionally use supplier images.
• As plants are living things, every plant is unique and natural variations in size, shape and fullness should be expected.
• The plant you receive may not be the exact plant pictured, but we'll always hand-pick a healthy, thriving plant we'd be happy to take home ourselves.
