Venus flytrap (Dionaea muscipula) is a carnivorous flowering plant. Known for eating insects that pass it by, it stands out with its jaws. The species gets its name from Venus, the Roman love goddess. Weird right? But the plant actually has sweet-scented nectar that attracts its prey.

Plant Specific Care
Spray your plant with soft water and clean the dust on the leaves once every two weeks. It is normal that some leaves darken. This simply means they are renewing themselves. However, if the whole plant darkens, it’s because its roots received too much moisture. This could be a sign of your plant dying.
