Care Tips

Provide plenty of bright light and keep the growing medium consistently moist with distilled, rain, or reverse osmosis water. Avoid regular potting soil and mineral-rich tap water. Do not repeatedly trigger traps, as closing them uses the plant’s energy. The Venus Flytrap benefits from a natural winter dormancy cycle.
