The Venus Fly Trap is an iconic insect eating plant and will be a brilliant talking point for the home. The jawed traps spring shut when triggered by a passing insect and begin the process of digesting the victim to release the valuable nutrients. This is a variety which can grow traps over 2.5cm (1in) and is one of the larger plants offered for sale so you don't have to wait years to get a substantial number of traps. The plant attracts insects by releasing a scent which mimics those emitted by fruits and flowers. The lobes of each trap secrete a sweet mucous which act as an attractant along with red colouring which intensifies in bright summer sun, fooling the insect into thinking that it is a flower. The traps of this fascinating plant are shaped from the ends of the leaves, with specially adapted hair-like sensors which cause the trap to be triggered when touched two or three times in quick succession. This prevents accidental triggering by rain or debris falling in and the traps are also clever enough not to close on tiny insects which would waste valuable energy for very little return. Once the jaws have closed, there is no escape. The struggling insect stimulates the trap to close further, immobilising it. Digestive acids are then produced by the leaf which kill, then dissolve the body and absorb the valuable nutrients. Once closed, traps take 5 to 12 days to reopen after the prey has been digested and will only work a couple of times before they become unusable so do not be tempted to close them yourself as this will weaken the plant. Supplied as an established plant in a 12cm pot, much bigger than plants offered for sale elsewhere and with more than one crown, ready to give you an instant pest clearing service.Care GuideA native of USA swamps, the Venus Fly Trap - Dionaea Muscipula - will grow perfectly happily on a windowsill or frost-free greenhouse, where plants need only to be kept in a tray of rain water or distilled water 1-2cm (
