Here's a picture of one of my venus flytraps (Dionaea muscipula). This plant, like most of my carnivorous plants, is presently growing in my greenhouse located three miles inland from the coast in Mendocino county. My flytraps tend to grow better outside than in the greenhouse, probably because the greenhouse is covered by seventy percent shade cloth (to reduce daytime heat build-up). Fifty percent shade cloth is ideal. Flytraps need lots of sunshine to develop red traps.
