The Venus flytrap has long, green leaves that grow close to the base. Its characteristic trapping jaws close rapidly when touched, giving the plant a playful and intriguing character. In summer, tall stems emerge with small white flowers that emit a subtle fragrance—a beautiful contrast to the robust trapping jaws.
