The iconic Venus Flytrap is a delightful plant to grow, and has wonderful hinged pairs of leaves that form a clam shape. It’s these that trap flies, giving Dionaea muscipula its well known name. These close thanks to hair like sensors that are aware when an insect enters, causing the leaves to close and trap it. Then chemicals inside the plant break it down, and the unfortunate victim is digested by the plant. During the summer it blooms with tiny white flowers. Grow indoors or in a conservatory, and place in a partially shaded of full sun position for the best results.
