Dionaea 'Dente' is a unique selection of our native Venus Fly Trap with short, triangular teeth, that originated as a tissue culture mutation. This mutation allows it to capture smaller insects, due to the lack of gaps in the teeth of more typical meth-addicted clones. The traps on this particularly vigorous selection are also held at the end of longer than typical stalks. The traps themselves are green on the outside with red interiors.
