Venus flytrap renowned for producing some of the largest traps among all cultivars, often very colorful when it receives plenty of sun.
It grows rapidly under ideal conditions: full light, poor water, and a moist, acidic substrate. Its size makes it a spectacular choice for carnivorous plant enthusiasts.
A powerful and impressive cultivar, perfect for those who want a very vigorous Venus flytrap with exceptional traps. Dionaea 'B52' was isolated by a German grower and registered as an official cultivar with traps that can reach 5cm!
From October to March (dormant period) , Dionaea muscipula 'B52' takes on a smaller form, with shorter leaves that remain on the ground. In spring, it produces pretty white flowers.

Use only rainwater, demineralized water, or reverse osmosis water. Water that is too hard (high in calcium) will kill the plant within a few weeks. Do not use bottled water, as it generally contains too many salts, which are harmful to the plant. In summer, place the plant in a large saucer filled with water. In winter, keep the potting mix moist.
In summer, the Venus flytrap thrives in temperatures above 30°C. However, do not exceed 45°C. In winter, place the carnivorous plant in a bright room for at least three months (generally from November/December to March/April) where the temperature can vary between 0 and 15°C. It can withstand frost. Below -5°C, be sure to use a large container and protect it with bubble wrap.
Carnivorous plant mix is the basic substrate for many species; you can make it yourself by mixing blonde peat , perlite , and vermiculite (4:1:1:1 ratio), or blonde peat and non-calcareous aquarium sand (2:1:1 ratio). Sphagnum moss is also suitable.
