Dionaea muscipula King Henry Flytrap
$39.95
$29.95
This variety of flytrap produces upright yellow traps. The mouths of the traps have a splash of reddish orange. It grows very vigorously and sends up multiple traps at once. It also produces larger than normal traps when it matures, up to 1 1/2 inches. Because of the long petioles, the leaves flop over due to the weight of the large traps. This is probably why it was called King Henry!
This batch are divisions from a 10-year old colony that we divided in spring. You can watch us divide the colony on our YouTube channel.

This plant took a bit longer to acclimate to its surrounding as well but it finally did.

Plant arrived healthy and well-packed. Growth is starting to take off! This arrived very hungry, has already caught several meals while my other plants are still waking up!

did not expect such a large healthy plant
was still dormant when arrived, i couldn't guess how many new traps this thing has put out in such a short time. has surpassed all expectations of health size and growth.

Great little plants - arrived healthy
I found the site to be very helpful in terms of setting expectations. Plants were shipped promptly and packaged very carefully. After reading up on plant care on the site I repotted them and they are doing well, growing new flytraps and eating little bugs that come their way. No complaints so far!
