Meet Venus Flytrap ‘Maroon Monster’, a jaw-dropping cultivar of the world's most famous carnivorous plant. Unlike typical Venus Flytraps, this stunning selection develops rich burgundy to deep maroon traps that look almost velvety in bright light. Its dramatic coloration paired with oversized, tooth-lined traps creates a plant that is equal parts beautiful, mysterious, and fierce.
And yes—it really works. Trigger hairs inside each trap snap shut in a fraction of a second when unsuspecting insects wander inside. It's one of nature's most incredible adaptations and a fascinating experience for plant lovers of all ages.
Bold. Beautiful. A little bit terrifying.
⚠️ Important Shipping Callout
📦 This plant ships in a 2" pot. It is not recommended to repot Venus Flytraps as disturbance of the roots can delay growth.
🪰 Current plant color is green and will become deep red with 6+ hours of sunlight
Plant Characteristics
• Rare deep maroon Venus Flytrap cultivar
• Large, dramatic traps with pronounced teeth
• Active insect-catching behavior

Plant Sizing Guide
What Size Am I Getting? Let's Break It Down.
We get it—plant sizes can be confusing. Is a “small” the size of a golf ball or a grapefruit? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered. Below is a quick guide to help you understand what each size means when shopping our plants. Measurements refer to the plant body, not including the pot (unless noted).
Tiny
- Baby plants or starter plugs. May be rooted or freshly cut. 0.5"–1.5" wide.
- Example: Butterwort plug, small seedling
Small
- Young plant, well-rooted, 1.5"–3" wide or tall.
- Example: Aeonium cutting, sundew cluster
Medium
- Established plant, 3"–5" wide/tall. Ready for repotting or display.
- Example: 2–3 year-old cactus, flowering flytrap
Large
- Mature plant, 5"–8" wide/tall. Great for centerpieces or statement planters.
- Example: Dioscorea elephantipes, pitcher plant
XL (Collector Size)
- Rare or mature specimen, 8"+ or unusually large or sculptural in form.
- Example: Caudex giants, multi-head aeoniums
📦 Note:
- Pot sizes (if included) are listed separately on product pages.
- Some species naturally stay small—even large ones might only be a few inches wide. Check individual listings for details.
- Photos are of representative plants—your plant may vary slightly (because nature’s not into clones).
