The carnivorous Venus flytrap (Dionaea muscipula) is an incredible perennial plant that has stolen the hearts of plant lovers across the world. Not only are they beautiful and otherworldly looking, but they also eat pesky insects like ants and spiders.
Although they can live for years in the wild, they sometimes die prematurely as an indoor or outdoor houseplant due to the average gardener’s lack of knowledge on how to care for Venus flytraps. Many wonder how to take care of a Venus flytrap properly.
