Venus Flytrap ‘Maroon Monster’ is a flytrap variety that turns a deep red color in strong light. It is a vigorous grower and can form fairly large traps.
Description
Size and packing method: You will receive a bare root plant about 1 inch in diameter, carefully wrapped in a damp paper towel. Plants are growing quickly at the moment and haven’t had time to turn fully red yet. If selecting with soil mix, you will receive two cups of our prepackaged Carnivorous Plant Soil Mix in addition to the bare root plant. This quantity of soil is roughly enough to fill one 2.5 x 2.5 x 3.5 inch square pot.
