B52 Venus Flytrap (Dionaea muscipula) - Live Carnivorous Plant in 3" Pot for Home & Garden | Perfect for Natural Pest Control & Unique Houseplant Collection

Upon unboxing the plant, I noticed that it seemed young and not very mature. The plant itself was large with many leaves and a meaty-looking rhizome. Its current traps were a bit on the smaller side. While I was expecting larger traps and red leaves, the plant showed all the right signs of being in great health and intact from shipping. One trap, though, was snapped from the leaf. It's just to be expected from shipping. Fortunately, the developing traps seemed like they had the potential to live up to the 'B-52' name! (See Figures 2 and 3.) I anticipate that with adequate light and water, the plant will mature and produce traps that span 2 inches in length. I was also provided with more than substantial care instructions for the plant as well as other carnivorous plants should one want to expand their cultivating journey.My reason for writing this review is to deter future buyers from dooming their newly delivered specimens to the trash. Patience is key! Let the plant grow with intense sunlight and water. With this, I can assure you that it within a year, it will become a beautifully strange plant that solves your bug problems. (I'll give an update in a month's time with photos.)Attached are photos of 1) the plant itself in its new home, 2 & 3) promising new traps on the plant, and 4) my newly founded carnivorous plant collection. I would like to note that the light in these photos is a bit warm; this is the result of the grow lights I use for the plants.Good luck on your cultivating journey and happy growing!*Shot with Canon EOS 6D Mark II and Canon EF 24-70 'L'
