Dionaea m. ‘Giant Clam’ Seed Pack (12 seeds/pack)
Dionaea m. 'Giant Clam' is a rarely sold cultivar. Large traps with fringed cilia and thick petioles are bright green with a deep red interior. The traps themselves can get quite large in summer!
These are open-pollinated, meaning the plants have been pollinated naturally, without our help, in our substantial botanical collection of select Venus flytrap cultivars. Venus flytraps are temperate plants and will have the best germination rate with a period of cold stratification. They can take many, many months to germinate. Sometimes, they will sprout within days, but taking a few months is more common. We’ve seen them take as long as a year!

Customer Reviews
12 out of 12 germinated. It’s fun to see how they will develop. On their first traps they all seem to have different teeth compared to each other. I didn’t cold stratify them.
This review comes down to germination rates in my opinion. I have always been satisfied with the seeds provided by the fantastic people at California Carnivores. When treated and handled properly, the germination rates are in the 80% range for me any my germination methods. Do I cold stratify? Yes as I do not know how long they have been stored.
I did not receive this seed packet, was wondering if I could purchase it again for a discount price.
