Packaging and cushioning
24 years of experience in packaging our plants. 100% recycled or reused.
Start by moistening the substrate provided, then fill your jar to the height that suits you best.
Place the moss and sphagnum moss there as desired.
Using tweezers (this is our favorite tool at Karnivores), make a small hole then "plant" your Dionaea muscipula root ball after removing the peat.
Pack down very lightly and keep moist at all times using rainwater, demineralized water or osmosis water.
Use only rainwater, demineralized or osmosis. Water that is too hard will cause the plant to die in a few weeks. Do not use bottled water, it generally contains too much salt, which is harmful to the plant. In summer, place the plant in a large saucer with water. In winter, keep the substrate moist.
In summer, the Venus flytrap is very comfortable with temperatures above 30°C. However, do not exceed 45°C. In winter, place the carnivorous plant for at least three months (generally from November-December to March-April) in a bright room where the temperature can vary from 0 to 15°C. It tolerates frost. Below -5°C, be sure to use a large container and protect it (bubble wrap).
Carnivorous plant mix is the basic substrate for many species, you can make it yourself by mixing blond peat , perlite and vermiculite , (4V/1V/1V) or blond peat , and non-calcareous aquarium sand (2V/1V). Sphagnum moss is also suitable.
