Cupped Trap |
|
Whole Plant Trap Detail  Note - Images are of summer traps grown in direct sunlight. | HistoryThis clone of Dionaea muscipula was first isolated by the staff at Agri-Starts III, Inc (19825 S.R. 44, Eustis, FL 32736 USA) in 1998.DescriptionThe traps are fused at the distal end, forming a cupped appearance when the trap is open. The trap cilia on the margins retain their coiled position until after the traps open. Despite these mutations, the traps still effectively capture insects.Trap colour - (full sun) crimson red inside, yellow green outside with a red line on the rim of the trap. Note - this cultivar is a small variety and its size at maturity is only about 5cm high with a 6cm rosette diameter. |
