These baby plants, around 2-5 cm in size, are potted in a bio cup with a specialised carnivorous plant potting mix.

Visual Description: The Venus Fly Trap 'Trichterfalle' is a fascinating and rare cultivar known for its unique funnel-shaped traps, a feature that distinguishes it from most other Venus Fly Traps. The name "Trichterfalle" translates to "funnel trap" in German, aptly describing its unusual trap morphology. The traps are typically a vibrant green with a deep red or burgundy interior, especially when exposed to strong sunlight. The teeth on the traps are shorter and fused, forming a continuous edge around the funnel-shaped trap, giving it a smooth and streamlined appearance.

Country of Origin: 'Trichterfalle' is a cultivar derived from the native Venus Fly Traps of the southeastern United States.

Ideal Growing Conditions:

• Bright, indirect sunlight
• Humid environment with well-draining, nutrient-poor soil (sphagnum peat moss and perlite mix)
• Keep soil moist with distilled or rainwater (avoid tap water)
• Temperature range of 70-85°F (21-29°C) during the growing season
• Cooler dormancy period in winter (around 40-50°F or 4-10°C)

Additional Information:

• Watering Tips: Use only distilled or rainwater; tap water can harm the plant due to its mineral content.
• Dormancy: A winter dormancy period is essential for the plant's long-term health; the plant should be kept cool and receive less water.
• Feeding: It can capture its own prey, occasionally feeding it small insects like flies or spiders can promote its impressive growth.

How to Harden Tissue Culture Dionaea muscipula: Gradually acclimatise your tissue-cultured plants to outdoor conditions. Start by placing the plant in a shaded area for a week, then slowly introduce it to more sunlight over the next 2–3 weeks. Maintain high humidity during this period, and be cautious not to expose the plant to direct sunlight or strong winds too quickly.
