Venus fly trap
Dionaea muscipula
Family Droseraceae
Venus flytrap is native to subtropical wetlands on the East Coast of the United States in North Carolina and South Carolina. It is one rare carnivorous plant that grows in open habitats on the rims of Carolina bays. Giving them a good long dormancy is very important. If you bring them inside in the winter to keep them growing they will decline over time. They like to be very chilly in winter, but do not like to freeze! You can keep them in an unheated basement in winter, or an unheated garage.
