VAT included

The Dionaea family has many cultivars, some of which are not registered like this one. Dionaea G16 is also known as 'Slack's giant'.

A plant that is very popular with Dionea collectors, and for good reason... In our greenhouses, this is the cultivar that produces the largest traps, which can easily reach 5 cm, making it a truly impressive carnivorous plant!

This cultivar is erected in summer.

From September to March (rest period) , Dionaea G16 takes on a smaller form, just like Dionaea G14 which both have the same father, namely Graham Sadd. The leaves are shorter and remain on the ground.

In spring it produces pretty white flowers.

Maintenance of the G16 Venus flytrap

Dionaea muscipula and watering

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.

Temperature and Dionaea muscipula

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).

Substrate for Dionaea muscipula

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.
