This floral artwork is our exclusive colour version, based on the one by Isaac Sprague in The Genera of the Plants of the United States, author Asa Grey, published 1849. Adapted here in colour, the original is in black and white. We also have the original black and white, as well as two different full colour versions, in our shop. The carnivorous plant Venus Flytrap, scientific name Dionaea muscipula, is the only member of the genus Dionaea in the sundew family, the Droseraceae. It is native to coastal North Carolina and northern South Carolina, growing in open bogs. It is also a popular cultivated plant. The Venus Flytrap catches and digests its prey, mostly insects and arachnids, in the trapping structure, which is formed by the terminal portion of each of the plants leaves, and is triggered by tiny hairs on their inner surfaces.
