Dionaea muscipula 'Fake Dracula' (Venus Flytrap)
Dionaea muscipula 'Fake Dracula' (Venus Flytrap)
Dionaea muscipula 'Fake Dracula' is a cultivated Venus Flytrap selected for its dramatic trap form and resemblance to the famous cultivar 'Dracula'. While not the same clone, it became popular among collectors because it expresses exaggerated marginal teeth and a similarly aggressive appearance. Like all Venus Flytraps, its ancestry traces back to the bogs of North and South Carolina in the United States.
Mature traps develop elongated cilia that give the plant a fang-like appearance. Under strong light the trap interiors often develop rich red pigmentation which contrasts against the green foliage. The combination of colour and exaggerated dentition creates one of the more striking displays among modern Venus Flytrap cultivars.
'Fake Dracula' grows as a perennial rosette and requires a winter dormancy period. The defining traits are maintained through vegetative propagation, making authentic divisions highly sought after by collectors interested in unusual trap morphology. Like all Venus Flytraps, it captures insects using rapid snap traps triggered by sensitive hairs inside each lobe.
Origin: Cultivated clone
Plant Type: Temperate carnivorous perennial
Trap Characteristics: Elongated fang-like cilia
Dormancy: Winter dormancy required
What's Included: One healthy Dionaea muscipula 'Fake Dracula'.
A tissue culture plants are grown in clear gel, transparent container that holds multiple young plants (typically 3 or more) grown under laboratory conditions.
Our Gel Cup are non-sterile gel media that we use for start the hardening process after a plant has been in tissue culture.These vessels provide a carefully controlled environment, keeping the plants healthy as the get ready to transition to standard growing conditions.
Quick Hardening Steps:
- Open Lid Gradually: Slightly open the cup to slowly reduce humidity.
- Maintain Humidity: Gradually decrease humidity over 2–4 weeks.
- Indirect Light: Start with gentle, indirect lighting.
- Moist Soil: Keep media damp, never wet.
- Monitor Closely: Slowly increase airflow and light exposure.
Each transparent Transition Cup (5 cm diameter × 7 cm height) contains a juvenile carnivorous plant that has moved beyond sterile tissue culture and into a structured transition medium.
Inside, you’ll find a young carnivorous plant securely planted in a semi-solid blend designed to support root development while easing the shift from gel to soil.
This carefully balanced environment maintains optimal humidity and airflow, helping reduce transplant shock and supporting the plant during this critical transition stage.
Suitable for both novice growers and experienced collectors, Transition Cups provide a reliable, low-stress way to guide delicate carnivorous plants toward successful soil establishment.
Each transparent carnivorous cup (5 cm diameter x 7 cm height) contains a juvenile carnivorous plant freshly transitioned from tissue culture.
Inside, you'll find a young carnivorous plant planted securely in special growing media soil that replicates their natural habitat.
This carefully balanced environment maintains optimal humidity, aiding the delicate plants during their crucial hardening-off stage.
Perfect for both novice growers and experienced collectors, these cups provide a simple and effective way to cultivate and enjoy captivating insect-eating plants.
