What plant do you have

### Karen comentó el 2025-09-19

I might get those. Are they easy to take care of.

It’s a maroon Venus fly trap. They are pretty easy but do require lots of light to keep the deep maroon color. Also need distilled water or reverse osmosis water. Regular tap water will kill it. I also have a lil designated desk light just for it.

Not an easy plant to keep alive I hear- it’s looking amazing! Do you have any tips?

#### DR Green Cee 𖤓𖥧 respondió el 2025-09-20

Honestly Iv had no problems with it at all really. I water it every 3rd day till the water runs out the drain holes and I let it sit in water a bit till it soaks it up throughout the day. Doesn’t seem to mind at all and no root rot. It has its own lil personal light receives about 350-400 PPFD (usable light from grown light) that’s how I keep it from turning back to green
