a Rare Venus Flytrap Whale Captures Large Insects
a Rare Venus Flytrap Whale Captures Large Insects
The rare Venus flytrap ‘Whale’ catches wandering insects while adding bright yellow-green foliage to your indoor space. Nectar on the inner walls lures guests directly onto triggering spikes. Once contact occurs, interlocking fringe hairs seal the trap shut. Natural enzymes then digest the catch over ten days, leaving only the dry exoskeleton behind.
Growing this carnivorous plant follows simple, proven steps for success. Place it in full sun and maintain moisture by filling a shallow water tray beneath the pot. Each shipment arrives with printed care instructions and clear dormancy guidelines so you can start right away.

Great product and delivery
Really nice soil and awesome service
Never used because I ordered the wrong Water Filter. Mike was very helpful with the return and refund. Excellent Customer Service.
Great service. Soil is what I wanted and it off loaded exactly where I asked.
Plants are doing really well with this soil. Deep and rich looking soil, plants seem really happy. Much more cost effective (and no plastic bag waste) compared to buying bags of soil mix from a store.
The quality of the craftsmanship is superb! My formula one fan absolutely loves it!!!!
Worked like an absolute charm!
These markers were perfect for ones that we were replacing. The quality is great and they seem sturdy. The gold detail stands out and is visible from a distance. Shipping was very fast.
Good solution. The little flies have disappeared. We were sure to mist/moisten the surface of each plant once a day for 4 or 5 days, after the initial application of the nematodes, to keep the little guys mobile and able to get to any remaining eggs. So, go for it!
Plant was well packed and shipment was very fast. Received a very nice fully rooted plant in the pot!
The organic garden soil is doing very well in my garden bed. The company was professional, nice, and accommodating to my needs. They provide many types of things for your landscaping at a reasonable price.
