exposure to temperatures below 10ºC (50ºF)
NOTE:
If propigation is attempted using part leaf cuttings, enshore that the cutting is oriented
vertically in the same direction. Cuttings will not root upside down.

?
SPECIAL PROBLEMS:
Tends to be a short lived plant.
NOTE:
This plant will do best in a soil mixture of 60% peat moss and 40% sand.
Never give these plants fertilizer. If no insects are available for the plant to catch,
try feeding them bits of raw hamburger.
If in good health, Venus Fly Traps will flower in the spring.
These plants evolved insectivorous habits as an adaptation to areas with poor
soil nutrients.
