Dionaea m. “Giant Piranha” Potted
Dionaea m. “Giant Piranha” is an exciting new cultivar selected from a cross of two huge flytrap cultivars; ‘Ginormous’ x ”Godzilla”. “Godzilla” is a giant, dentate plant that we’ve made here at CalCarn. We have several clones from this cross and all should be huge, fast growing plants with long teeth and arching traps!
This cultivar is like a ‘Piranha’ on steroids! With huge traps and serated teeth, it’s a gorgeous flytrap for any collection! These are small plants and will rapidly grow over summer!
PLEASE NOTE VENUS FLYTRAPS GO DORMANT FROM OCTOBER-MARCH during this time they appear quite small and grow few traps. They will begin to grow vigorously again in Spring. WHEN YOU ORDER THIS PLANT IN SPRING IT WILL ARRIVE SMALLER THAN THE PHOTO!
Care Instructions
Sun: Full sun outdoors
Water: Always sitting in at least two inches of distilled or purified water
Temperature: 20 degrees - 80 degrees, can even take temperatures from freezing to 100 degrees but only for short periods
Dormancy: All Venus flytraps require a winter dormancy starting in October and ending in February. Many of the traps will turn black and die back during this time. Leave them outdoors in full sun, sitting in distilled water during this period. If you live in an area that snows; over winter them indoors on a sunny windowsill in an unheated room or garage. Still sitting in full sun and distilled water.

Came as described (and early!). Packaged very safely. Plant seemed healthy and has been doing well so far. No signs of pests. A couple sundew hitchhikers made it onto the soil, but they are more than welcome. Overall great experience, I will be a returning customer.
The plant came well packaged and very healthy; I repotted it into a larger pot and it’s very happy and growing nicely.
