Description
Blue Green Fly Trap seeds are for growing a perennial carnivorous plant in collections and bog or sunny containers. They prefer full sun and an acidic, well-drained peat-based mix with sand, kept consistently moist with distilled or rainwater, and seedlings germinate in 30-90 days at 20-25°C. Sow 0.5-1 cm deep with 15-25 cm spacing, and note that mature traps may take 1-2 years and flowering from seed is not common. The plant requires winter dormancy and unfertilized acidic media, with gradual acclimation.
