[ ESSENTIAL CARE STEPS ]
Keep your Venus Flytrap thriving
Follow these simple steps for a healthy carnivorous plant
Watering
- Always keep sitting in a saucer with distilled, reverse osmosis, or rainwater
- Never let dry out; avoid pouring water directly onto traps
- Minerals and salts will harm the plant—tap water is not safe
Sunlight
- Requires full sun (6+ hours daily)
- Outdoor growth is ideal; indoor growth needs a very bright windowsill or grow lights
- Some traps may burn when first exposed to sun—this is normal
Soil
- Avoid any soil with fertilizer or added nutrients
- Use 4 parts fertilizer-free peat moss to 1 part perlite
Enjoy
- Thrives in 20–90°F
- Don't force-feed your plant
- Just like Greptile, it's a bug smart catcher!
