This is a gorgeous Red Dragon Venus Flytrap. It has been rooted, established, and comes ready to plant. Meaning ‘Red Dragon’, Akai Ryu is a has been a popular Venus flytrap for many years. It is a vigorous grower and will make a great addition to your garden. This plant takes on a beautiful and fierce appearance. The traps will be green unless it is grown in bright sun. The traps then become a gorgeous red. If grown outside, the leaves will tend to grow longer than if grown indoors. These beautiful plants emit a sweet-smelling odor to attract insects. Sensitive hairs inside will trigger the trap to snap shut when disturbed. Each meal will be digested over the course of a week. Each trap only opens and closes a few times before it will die off and grow a new one. For this reason, it is important to not “false trigger” the traps and make them shut for no reason, as it will only stress out the plant with no benefit. It is also important to never fertilize a Venus Fly Trap, as that would be fatal to the plant. They are slow growing but can reach heights up to 6 inches and have a similar spread. They thrive in all types of sunlight and do fantastic in full sun as well as full shade. They enjoy soil with high levels of organic matter and an acidic pH level. It is important to always use mineral-free water with carnivorous plants. Rainwater or distilled water work very well. Keep the soil consistently moist. It is not uncommon to receive a plant with a few dead or dying traps. This is a normal occurrence in nature and is part of the life cycle. You can simply trim off the dead plant matter, and they will grow new leaves out from the center. It is recommended to remove all coverings from the plant. The plant should be watered immediately upon receiving it, using the watering instructions above. They do very well in USDA zones 6-10 and will survive zone in zone 5 if they are protected through winter. They also make a fabulous indoor indoor plant in lower zones.
