Dionaea Muscipula
 
Origin: America
 
Of all the carnivorous plants, Dionaea muscipula, also known as the Venus flytrap, is certainly the best known. The leaves appeal to the imagination and are considered by many to be fascinating. There are tactile hairs on the two halves of a leaf. When the tactile hairs are touched several times, the leaf closes. If prey is captured, the plant will begin to digest it; otherwise, it will open again after a day.

Although Dionaea can stay both indoors and outdoors. The plant can also remain outside during mild winters (down to about -5 ℃)
