Dionaea muscipula "Red Sawtooth Flytrap"
$26.95
The red sawtooth flytrap is a rare variant. It is red throughout, and the traps have finely serrations along the edges. Compared to some of the larger forms of flytrap, the red sawtooth flytrap is much smaller and grows much slower. We've rarely seen this plant grow larger than 2-3 inches across. It's still unusual and makes a great addition to any cold hardy collection. Supply is limited.

Nice little fly trap
The sawtooth is quite unique that it doesn't have those long teeth. I actually thought it wouldn't be able to catch anything but it does so quite well. I'm surprised. Deep red coloration is fantistic. What it lack in size it makes up for it in beautiful deep red traps. Will be buying again!
