Dionaea muscipula 'Flexx'
Dionaea muscipula ‘Flexx’ is a wonderfully quirky Venus flytrap with large, flexible traps and a vigorous growth habit. The hinged traps often develop rich red tones in bright light, creating a bold and unusual display while giving the plant real character.
Perfect for sunny windowsills or bright indoor spots, it makes an interactive and eye-catching feature plant. Like all Venus flytraps, it naturally captures its own food, snapping shut when tiny trigger hairs are touched, making it both fascinating and easy to maintain without feeding.
