Dionaea 'A2'

Registrant: H.v.Schmeling/M.Miller, 07.05.2013

some of the largest traps of all flytraps. Created and propagated by Henning von Schmeling in the early 2000s, Dionaea ‘ A2 ‘ H.v.Schmeling is one of seven seedlings resulting from the self-pollination of a Venus’s flytrap cultivar that Henning nicknamed “Carolina Giant”. The seven seedlings were originally named “A1”, “A2”, “A3”, etc., in order of descending size, with “A1″ being the largest plant and later renamed to Dionaea ‘ B52 ‘ B.Rice after the large American bomber aeroplane. Dionaea ‘ A2 ‘ H.v.Schmeling is a Venus’s flytrap variety that is highly sought after by collectors. Dionaea ‘ A2 ‘ H.v.Schmeling is now in wide distribution in the United States after being tissue cultured in 2010 by Matt Miller and distributed through his nursery FlytrapStore. The traps of Dionaea ‘ A2 ‘ H.v.Schmeling are up to 5.5 cm long, and among the largest of all Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis cultivars. It is predominantly a low-growing cultivar and produces decumbent leaves and traps throughout the year. It produces large quantities of seed (notably more than the cultivar Dionaea ‘ B52 ‘ B.Rice). During late summer and autumn, the large traps of Dionaea ‘ A2 ‘ H.v.Schmeling develop deep red colouration across their inner surfaces when exposed to strong sunlight. The red colouration develops more readily than in Dionaea ‘ B52 ‘ B.Rice.”

Dionaea 'Adentate'

Registrant: C.Paul, 15.05.2013

The outer rim of each lobe is thickened, but the marginal lashes are either very short and reduced to bumps or, on some traps, completely absent altogether. In summer, Dionaea ‘ Adentate ‘ C.Paul produces erect leaves up to 5 cm long bearing very narrow leaf bases and petioles. When cultivated in strong sunlight, the interior of the traps of Dionaea ‘ Adentate ‘ C.Paul and the rudimentary marginal lashes develop blood red colouration, while the exterior surfaces of the lobes are yellowish orange or may suffuse reddish. The leaf bases may also turn reddish close to the rhizome. This cultivar can be propagated easily through leaf or rhizome cuttings.

Venus-flytrap-akai-ryu

Dionaea 'Akai Ryu'

Registered by: R.Gagliardo, 10.11.1998

The leaf petiole, blade and trap exhibit dark maroon to burgundy coloration. Any green coloration has only been noted around the center of the plant in mid-winter. The entire trap, interior and exterior, exhibits dark burgundy coloration throughout the year. Grown under laboratory conditions, where nutrient levels can be comparatively high, the plants still exhibit partial burgundy coloration in the traps and leaf blade.”

VF Alien Photo Guillaume Bily

Dionaea 'Alien'

Registrant: G.Bily, 11. 8. 2010

is the extremely arched shape of all of the traps, which are 4 to 5 cm on mature plants. They made me think of the head of an alien from Ridley Scott’s well-known 1979 movie ‘Alien’. Dionaea muscipula ‘ Alien ‘ G.Bily also produces strange teeth that are a little shorter than typical Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis and have small wings all along the tooth. Mature traps are also fused at the distal end and base lobes of traps overlap. Traps do not close well because the lobes of the traps are very heavy, reminding me of a Heliamphora Benth. pitcher, and when you try to close it with your fingers it often breaks. Each trap produces many tiny trigger hairs.”

Dionaea 'All Green'

Registrant: C.Clayton, 25.05.2013

prostrate leaves that are up to 12 cm long. The traps are up to 3.6 cm in length, usually borne on short and narrow leaf bases. All parts of the foliage of Dionaea ‘ All Green ‘ C.Clayton lack visible red colouration and appear pure yellowish green. This cultivar produces many offshoots throughout the year and is easily be propagated by leaf cuttings and division of offshoots.

Dionaea 'Alternance'

Registrant: L.Blacher, 28. 3. 2017

rather yellow background. The inner color of the trap is rose red. In full sun, the plant becomes greener and the trap becomes redder.”

Dionaea 'Angelwings'

Registrant: S.Leonhardt, 27.04.2013

decumbent leaves that are up to 4.5 cm long. The leaf bases are short and narrow, and the petioles are greatly reduced or hardly visible at all. The traps have a wide aperture of up to 180deg. and the trap lobes are often spread flat on the surface of substrate. The margins of the lobes may be bent backwards or the lobes may be entirely revolute. The marginal lashes are short and often curled or bent in various directions. The traps do not completely close. The leaf bases are consistently pure yellowish green, while the marginal lashes and the inner surfaces of the traps suffuse orange, pink or light red. Dionaea ‘ Angelwings ‘ S.Leonhardt is easily propagated by leaf cuttings.”

Dionaea 'Axe'

Registrant: P.Mattevi, 19. 9. 2019

Early-season petioles have an erect habit and present the first traps with very small teeth that will be absent in the following ones and will give the plant the appearance of an axe, hence the name. The adult leaves are about 6 cm long and the traps have a slender shape, they narrow in the farthest part of the petiole and reach 16-17 mm. The formation of a red line on the edge of adult traps in the area at the base of the teeth, will give the axes of this unique specimen an even more bloody appearance. Towards the end of the season, the last traps will be prostrate with the formation of teeth and a red/orange color in the surface of the inner trap surfaces.”

Dionaea 'B52'

Registrant: B.Rice, 1. 12. 2006

Henning von Schmeling. Henning selected this plant because of its vigorous growth and brightly colored traps that are up to 5.7 cm (2.25 inches) long in conditions that yield smaller traps in most other strains.”

Dionaea 'BCP clone X11'

Registrant: K.Pasek, 07.05.2013

foliage as soon as growth commences in early spring, and it continues to produce erect leaves throughout the growing season until dormancy. Short, triangular marginal lashes line the outer edges of the lobes of the traps. The traps of Dionaea ‘ BCP clone X11 ‘ K.Pasek typically have only two trigger hairs per lobe, instead of the three that is typical for Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis. The absence of one trigger hair has no apparent effect on the functionality of the traps. The interior surfaces of the trap lobes develop orange or bright red colouration in specimens grown exposed to direct sunlight, especially late in the season. All other parts are yellowish green. The foliage of this cultivar is in line with wild type Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis, In all other respects, including size. It produces abundant viable seed, and can be propagated easily by leaf cuttings.”

Dionaea 'Bec de Lievre'

Registrant: S.Bonnet, 27. 6. 2013

2.5 cm. The frequency of these deformations is random, but occurs more frequently in summer and autumn. The traps are tinged with a red color of variable intensity. The plant is vigorous and quickly produces a dense bunch of leaves and traps.”

Dionaea 'Big Mouth'

Registrant: M.Miller, 16.05.2013

foliage throughout the growing season, and starts to develop leaves early in spring. The traps are up to 4.5 cm long, and are borne on proportionately very short leaf bases. Usually the leaf bases are approximately the same length as the traps, which is in contrast to typical wild type Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis in which the leaf bases are usually approximately twice as long as the traps. The marginal lashes and interior surfaces of the trap lobes develop vivid, deep red to purple colouration. The exterior surfaces of the lobes are yellow or organish, often with a red line below the marginal lashes. Dionaea ‘ Big Mouth ‘ C.Clayton is slow to establish as it generally produces copious offshoots, but forms established specimens after two years of growth. It produces abundent pollen, and large quantities of fertile seed, and can be propagated easily by leaf cuttings and division of offshoots.”

Dionaea 'Big Teeth Red Giant'

Registrant: K.Pasek, 07.05.2013

plant nursery Best Carnivorous Plants and was named by Kamil Pasek because of its long, robust marginal lashes and large, colourful traps which measure up to 4.5 cm long and 4 cm wide. The leaves produced in spring bear particularly large traps that are curved along the midrib. The inner surfaces of the trap lobes and the marginal lashes suffuse dark reddish or purple when exposed to direct sunlight. The traps often have a red line below the marginal lashes. Dionaea ‘ Big Teeth Red Giant ‘ K.Pasek is a vigorous and fast growing cultivar that produces mostly prostrate foliage. Propagation is best achieved by rhizome cuttings or division of offshoots.”

Dionaea 'Bimbo'

Registrant: M.Maier, 27.04.2013

the largest of all Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis cultivars. The traps are up to 5 cm long borne on leaf bases that may be 10 cm in length. The traps are curved along the midrib and close very rapidly in specimens grown exposed to direct sunlight. In addition to its impressive size, Dionaea ‘ Bimbo ‘ E.Koenig exhibits remarkable colouration. The inner surfaces of the trap lobes develop deep red colouration, often with an unusual purple sheen. The marginal lashes may be white, red or purple, while the exterior of the traps and all other parts of the foliage appear entirely yellowish green. Parts of the rhizome may be reddish. Dionaea ‘ Bimbo ‘ E.Koenig is a vigorous and fast growing cultivar. It produces fully erect leaves during summer and can be propagated easily by rhizome division and leaf cuttings.”

Dionaea 'Biohazard'

Registrant: C.Klein, S.Glied, C.Paul, M.Stoeckl, 14.05.2013

are up to 8 cm long. The summer foliage is mainly erect, while leaves produced in spring and autumn are decumbent. Most leaves display greatly deformed trap lobes. The margins of the lobes are variably bent and often undulate. The lobes are fringed with marginal lashes of different lengths, some of which are partially fused, and the traps possess many trigger hairs, but usually are unable to close properly. When exposed to direct sunlight, the traps of Dionaea ‘ Biohazard ‘ C.Klein develop variable red colouration across the inner surfaces of the trap lobes. The margin of the lobes usually stay green and the lashes are often whitish. The mutated characteristics are not very stable as specimens may sporadically lose their distinctive trap morphology and produce typical leaves. Offspring grown from seed consistently fail to inherit the mutated trap structure, and consequently, propagation must be achieved through rhizome division or leaf cuttings.”

Dionaea 'Blanche Hermine'

Registrant: G.Bily, 20. 1. 2012

from a variegated Venus Flytrap that I found in May 2008 at the Carniflora open day. In September, I was able to take a bulb cutting. The mother plant died from frost during winter 2008/2009. A small very white plant started to grow from this bulb cutting. I thought that this white plant would die once the reserves of the cutting were exhausted. To see this plant resuming growth in spring 2009 was quite a big surprise for me! The plant must certainly still have had some chlorophyll traces in its leaf, hardly visible in the white leaf tissue (see Fig. 1). Dionaea muscipula ‘Blanche Hermine’ G.Bily is quite a slow grower because of the deficiency of chlorophyll, but it is possible to do leaf and bulb cuttings to maintain the unique features of this plant.”

Dionaea 'Bohemian Garnet'

Registrant: M.Srba, 15. 1. 2007

clone Dionaea ‘ Royal Red ‘ AUPBR 464 and a more typically colored Dionaea ‘ Sawtooth ‘ B.Rice plant in 2000. It does not demonstrate any new mutation in general leaf form, but it does have new attributes which distinguish it from other, previously existing Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis cultivars. Establishing this plant name as a new cultivar will help keep proper order in the wide assortment of Dionaea muscipula Soland. ex Ellis cultivars already registered. This new cultivar differs in its growth from other Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis cultivars in the following ways: 1)All-red coloration of plants, similar to Dionaea ‘ Akai Ryu ‘ R.Gagliardo. 2)Marginal trichomes are reduced and divided to numerous toothlets similar to Dionaea ‘ Sawtooth ‘ B.Rice. Note that the trichomes on Dionaea ‘ Red Piranha ‘ E.Read are dentate, but not sawtooth. 3)Adult plants are about 4-6 cm in diameter, only about half the size of most Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis (including Dionaea ‘ Sawtooth ‘ B.Rice). 4)Enormous proliferation. One individual is able to produce 10-30 or more offshoots during a single growth season.”

Dionaea 'Bristle Tooth'

Registrant: C.Clayton, 25.05.2013

Description: Bailey & McPherson, Dionaea:188 (2013) “Dionaea ‘ Bristle Tooth ‘ C.Clayton produces leaves up to 7 cm in length bearing traps up to 2.5 cm long, although traps up to 3.5 mm long may occasionally be produced. In addition to its distinctive marginal lashes, Dionaea ‘ Bristle Tooth ‘ C.Clayton is noteworthy for it bears thick, bristly trigger hairs. The leaves are bright yellowish green, with deep red colouration present across the inner surfaces of the traps’ lobes. If exposed to very strong sunlight, the insides of the traps may turn dark purple. Most leaves produced during the growing season are decumbent, although occasional erect leaves may develop in small numbers during spring and summer months. It produces unusually large leaves early in the growing season. Similar to many Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis cultivars with short marginal lashes, Dionaea ‘ Bristle Tooth ‘ C.Clayton produces abundant offshoots which enable rapid propagation by division.”

Dionaea 'BZ 1955'

Registrant: R.Ziemer, 07.05.2013

prostrate leaves that bear traps up to 4.7 cm long. It is a vigorous grower, especially in spring. When grown in bright sunlight, the insides of the traps turn deep maroon and the exterior surfaces develop a dark red line below the marginal lashes. The lashes may also develop a dark red colouration as well. Practically all Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis plants that were commercially sold in the 1950s were collected from the wild. This seems the likely origin of this plant, especially considering its similarity to wild type Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis.”

Dionaea 'Carniplant'

Registrant: G.Gutierrez, 27. 11. 2014

them can be crossed. The first traps of the growing season may have 3 trigger hairs per lobe, but eventually producing 4-5 functional trigger hairs per lobe; a total of 8-10 for each trap. The most similar cultivar is probably Dionaea ‘ Triton ‘ M.Maier, but this can be distinguished easily by its fused distal ends of the traps. Dionaea ‘ Carniplant ‘ G.Gutierrez differs from Dionaea ‘ JA1 ‘ J.A.Gonzalez Dominguez in the number of trigger hairs (6 in Dionaea ‘ JA1 ‘ J.A.Gonzalez Dominguez and 8-10 in Dionaea ‘ Carniplant ‘ G.Gutierrez) and trap color when grown in direct sunlight (Dionaea ‘ JA1 ‘ J.A.Gonzalez Dominguez is mostly green and Dionaea ‘ Carniplant ‘ G.Gutierrez turns red). The plant also differs from Dionaea ‘ Fused Tooth ‘ D’Amato in that in Dionaea ‘ Carniplant ‘ G.Gutierrez, not all of the marginal teeth are fused (Fig. 2), has larger petioles, and a higher number of trigger hairs per lobe.”

Dionaea 'CCCP Tasmanian Devil'

Registrant: C.Heath & S.Wang, 22. 1. 2020

characterized by short but rather stout cilia and a unique wavy trap morphology (Fig. 3). Important to note is that while the traps have an undulating morphology, the traps are perfectly symmetric and are fully functional, able to completely seal and digest prey. Undulating morphology of the traps is seen in nearly all traps. Trigger hairs are standard three per trap side. Traps are green with red internally and number of traps is relatively prolific. Trap size measures up to 1.6 cm and the petioles are relatively short, measuring up to 1.6 cm. Petiole growth is prostrate.”

Dionaea 'Cheerleader'

Registrant: D.Conner, 29. 6. 2012

grow much larger and faster than the others. As it grew, I noticed the successively emerging traps were losing the fuzzy appearance, and eventually newly emerging traps began to look “normal”, with smooth outer lobes and long protruding teeth on the outer margins. Eventually, the entire plant was producing “normal” looking leaf traps. In late April 2012, this larger specimen with normal looking traps had developed additional offshoots with the distinctive “fuzzy” traps (Fig. 7). This is the typical growth behavior of Dionaea ‘ Cheerleader ‘ D.Conner – that is, fuzzy traps appear each spring as the plant emerges from dormancy and new offshoots develop. These fuzzy traps do not grow into normal traps, but eventually die, while, as the season progresses, additional newly emerging traps grow into normal traps. This leads me to believe that the genes responsible for the “fuzzy” traps are present and for some reason get “switched off” when the plant reaches a certain size, age, or stage of development, but can be re-activated in new young offshoots, divisions, leaf pullings, or in young plantlets propagated through tissue culture. The annual recurrent pattern of fuzzy traps in mature plants of this cultivar has been replicated by several growers. The flower appears to be normally formed (Fig. 9). Plants with fuzzy traps have commonly been discussed since at least 2001 using local names such as “PomPom”, “Hedgehog”, or “Scrub Brush”, but the fuzzy traps on these plants have been reported to eventually give way to plants with normal traps. Further, I am not aware of any publications reporting that fuzzy traps reappear in subsequent years as the plants emerge from dormancy or produce offshoots.”

Dionaea 'Clayton's Red Sunset'

Registrant: C.Clayton, 31. 3. 2003

Clayton’s Red Sunset ‘ C.Clayton. It regularly grows up to 25 cm (10 inches) across, although extremely slowly, and is one of the wonders of the flytrap world. The features which make this cultivar different from other red flytraps (such as Dionaea ‘ Red Dragon ‘ R.Gagliardo or Dionaea ‘ Red Piranha ‘ E.Read are the following: A)The petioles are almost always long and thin. The other red flytraps have quite wide petioles, especially during the winter. B)During the winter, this cultivar totally loses its leaves, at least when grown in a Mediterranean climate. The other red flytraps retain at least some of their leaves. C)This plant is totally red, except for the teeth on immature traps, which are yellow. Dionaea ‘ Red Dragon ‘ R.Gagliardo incorporates green as part of its coloration at some time during its growth cycle. D)The color of this cultivar is a deeper, darker red than the other currently named red flytrap cultivars. It becomes almost black in the summer if exposed to full sunlight. E)The marginal spines on this cultivar are normal, and not sawtooth as in Dionaea ‘ Red Piranha ‘ E.Read.”

Dionaea 'Cleopatra'

Registrant: A.Amici, 2. 9. 2018

sales table. Many plants were dehydrated, almost dead, with leaves crumpled due to lack of water. Among these was a small Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis with three to four dry leaves. I could see some fused and colorless teeth. (…) After a year of proper cultivation, the plant shows itself in all its dazzling and overflowing splendor! Cultivated in pure peat and in an 8 cm deep polystyrene pot, in a greenhouse, slightly shaded, constantly in water, and frequently humidified with a rain system, the small dehydrated Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis is now in wonderful shape! As in the fairy tale of “Il Brutto Anatroccolo” (Andersen’s “Ugly Duckling”), this unique specimen can now show its truly extraordinary shapes and colors. Dionaea ‘ Cleopatra ‘ A.Amici is a variation of Dionaea ‘ Fused Tooth ‘ D’Amato. The petiole of the trap is green with the central rib shaded red, the trap is a very dark red, tending to burgundy (Fig. 2). The edge of the trap, in the area at the base of the teeth, is so dark as to be black, incredibly black! The bearing of the plant is rosette, prostrate. The leaves are 8-10 cm long and the traps have a rounded shape and reach 3 cm. All the leaves have a long life on the plant. The combination of all of these characteristics gives this unique specimen great charm.”

Dionaea 'Coquillage'

Registrant: G.Bily, 11. 8. 2010

and very thick lips. Traps are usually smaller than 3 cm. The round shape of the traps when closed resembles the shape of a shell.”

Dionaea 'Coquiton'

Registrant: A.Letertre, 24. 8. 2015

on yellow. It is prostrate and compact, with arched traps, reminding one of Dionaea ‘ Cudo ‘ J. & M.Srba. The petiole is short and large and sometimes there is an excrescence on it. The teeth are short, stocky, the tip of the teeth is curved and/or deformed, bringing the tentacles of Drosera L. to mind, and there are intermediate microteeth.

Dionaea 'Crested Petioles'

Registrant: M.Miller, 25.05.2013

Clayton for it produces elongated petioles that occasionally exhibit ridges, bumps, and serrations, often referred to amongst horticulturists as “scaling”. Dionaea ‘ Crested Petioles ‘ C.Clayton does not develop scaling very often and otherwise exhibits typical morphology, size, colouration and vigour. It may be propagated easily by leaf cuttings.”

Dionaea 'Crocodile'

Registrant: M.Farina, 29.05.2013

base merges with the trap lobes, a characteristic shared with Dionaea ‘ Korrigans ‘ G.Bily. The transitional part of the lamina between the leaf base and the lobes variably undulates. The trap lobes cannot completely close towards the leaf base, which usually allows prey to escape and digestive fluids to leak. The traps are slightly curved along the midrib and have narrow marginal lashes. Dionaea ‘ Crocodile ‘ M.Farina produces mostly decumbent leaves up to 7 cm long. The inner surfaces of the trap lobes develop deep red colouration while the exterior of the traps and the leaf base may suffuse reddish in plants growing in direct sunlight. This cultivar must be propagated vegetatively; rhizome cuttings work well.”

Dionaea 'Cross Teeth'

Registrant: M.Miller, 25.05.2013

to 6 cm long, bearing traps that are up to 3.1 cm in length. The leaves consist of narrow and succulent leaf bases and elongated petioles. The lobes of the traps are almost orbicular and their margins are often folded inwards, giving the traps a boxy appearance. Up to four marginal lashes can be fused together at their bases, forming triangular blades. In summer, the foliage of this cultivar can be extremely colourful. The inner surfaces of the trap lobes, the margins of the traps and the marginal lashes may suffuse dark red or pinkish while all other parts of the foliage are yellowish green. This cultivar is best propagated through rhizome cuttings.”

Dionaea 'Cudo'

Registrant: J.Srbova, M.Srba, 17.05.2013

most specimens are 1-3 cm across. The largest specimens that have been cultivated attain a diameter of 5 cm. The robust, very short, succulent, narrow leaf bases support practically no petiole but bear malformed traps that are up to 1.3 cm long and are strongly curved along the midrib. The marginal lashes are involute and stunted, and reminiscent of Dionaea ‘ Shark Tooth ‘ anon.. Dionaea ‘ Cudo ‘ J. & M. Srba was believed to be incapable of producing inflorescences, however German horticulturist Christian Klein reported to the authors of this chapter that he grew a specimen that did flower on one occasion. Unfortunately the inflorescence was not documented or photographed. When grown in strong sunlight, the inner surfaces of the trap lobes and the leaf axils close to the rhizome may develop reddish colouration, but most often all parts are pure yellowish green. Horticulturists report that Dionaea ‘ Cudo ‘ J. & M. Srba succeeds best when cultivated in warm and humid conditions similar the prefered growing conditions of Drosera subg. Lasioecephala and lowland Nepenthes. The rhizome and new shoots develop into the substrate and have to be excavated for healthy growth to be promoted. Propagation of Dionaea ‘ Cudo ‘ J. & M. Srba is difficult and best achieved by rhizome cuttings taken from well established specimens. As Dionaea ‘ Cudo ‘ J. & M. Srba is incapable of trapping prey, and the root system seems limited in size and function, cultivated specimens respond positively to foliar feeding with diluted liquid fertiliser.”

Dionaea 'Cupped Trap'

Registrant: S.Stewart, 29. 7. 2003

species, in that the traps are fused at the distal end, forming a cupped appearance when the trap is open. (…) The trap cilia on the margins retain their coiled position until after the traps open, displaying the circinate growth form. Despite these mutations, the traps still effectively capture insects.”

Dionaea 'DC All Red'

Registrant: D.Conner, S.Doonan, M.Miller, 07.05.2013

S.Doonan & M.Miller develops deeper and darker red colouration than any other red Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis variant currently in cultivation. Minimal yellowish green colouration may be temporarily present on developing leaves and newly opened foliage, or parts shaded from direct sunlight. Dionaea ‘ DC All Red ‘ S.Doonan & M.Miller produces decumbent leaves up to 7 cm long bearing traps up to 3.5 cm in length. All aspects of its morphology are in line with wild type Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis. Similar to most red Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis variants, Dionaea ‘ DC All Red ‘ S.Doonan & M.Miller matures slowly, perhaps because the abundence of red anthocyanins in the leaves filter out some of the light spectrum used for photosynthesis. Flowers produced by Dionaea ‘ DC All Red ‘ S.Doonan & M.Miller plants may exhibit a red stigma and/or red anthers. Occasionally, flower petals may have faint red veining. This cultivar readily produces large quantities of viable seed and can be propagated easily by division and rhizome cuttings.”

Dionaea 'DC XL'

Registrant: D.Conner, S.Doonan, M.Miller, 07.05.2013

exceptionally large traps, which rival Dionaea ‘ B52 ‘ B.Rice for the title of largest traps of all Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis cultivars. In spring, it emerges from dormancy by producing a flurry of upright leaves that are up to 13 cm long. The leaves of established, mature specimens bear traps that regularly exceed 5 cm in length. A succession of impressive upright leaves is produced over the course of the summer, but none quite as large as the initial spring foliage. During late summer and autumn Dionaea ‘ DC XL ‘ S.Doonan & M.Miller reverts to producing smaller, decumbent foliage. All parts of the leaves are bright yellowish green, except for bright reddish colouration on the inner surfaces of the trap lobes. The morphology of this culttivar is in line with wild type Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis, in all respects.”

Dionaea 'Dentate Traps'

Registrant: B.Rice, Davis, USA, 20. 10. 1999

selected because its marginal spines were noticeably mutated. Instead of being long and filiform (as is usual), the spines of Dionaea ‘ Dentate Traps ‘ B.Rice are short and triangular. This feature is not always apparent on small traps, or those produced early in the season, but the traps on mature plants in full growth are unmistakably dentate.”

Dionaea 'Dentate'

Dionaea 'Dracula'

Registrant: T.Cox, 07.05.2013

traps, which are strongly curved along the midrib. The marginal lashes are reduced and have a distinctive triangular shape. The interior surfaces of the traps and the lashes develop intense blood red to purple colouration. The exterior of the traps are yellowish green, usually with a prominent red line below the margins of the trap lobes. Dionaea ‘ Dracula ‘ T.Cox is a vigorous cultivar and produces mostly low growing leaves up to 10 cm long. It is best propagated by division of offshoots.”

Dionaea 'Dracula'

Registrant: T.Cox, 07.05.2013

traps, which are strongly curved along the midrib. The marginal lashes are reduced and have a distinctive triangular shape. The interior surfaces of the traps and the lashes develop intense blood red to purple colouration. The exterior of the traps are yellowish green, usually with a prominent red line below the margins of the trap lobes. Dionaea ‘ Dracula ‘ T.Cox is a vigorous cultivar and produces mostly low growing leaves up to 10 cm long. It is best propagated by division of offshoots.”

Dionaea 'ERROR'

Registrant: M.Maier, 27.04.2013

leaves up to 8 cm long that bear traps up to 3.2 cm long. The leaf base is very short and narrow, but in all other respects, its morphology and growth habit is in line with wild type Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis. The distinctive feature of this cultivar is that it produces traps that do not respond when their trigger hairs are stimulated. In a series of tests executed at the University of Wuerzburg, it was established that the trigger hairs do generate an action potential and that all digestive functions are normal, so the error must reside in the closing mechanism of the trap lobes. The traps of Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis respond with a rapid then a slow closing movement enabling the lobes to hermetically seal before the digestive process begins. Since the traps of Dionaea ‘ ERROR ‘ M.Maier can close slowly, it appears that the defect lies in the fast closing mechanism. The inside of the traps and the marginal lashes of Dionaea ‘ ERROR ‘ M.Maier develop pure reddish purple colouration when exposed to direct sunlight. The exterior surfaces of the trap lobes are reddish and often bear a prominent red line below the margins of the lobes. The leaf bases and petioles are pure yellowish green. Division of offshoots is the easiest method to propagate this cultivar.”

Dionaea 'Fangzahn'

Registrant: M.Maier, 27.04.2013

exceptionally robust marginal lashes which measure up to 1.6 cm in length that are borne from traps that are up to 3.6 cm long. Dionaea ‘ Fangzahn ‘ E.Koenig is a vigorous cultivar and produces long, erect foliage in summer. The interior surfaces of the traps and the marginal lashes are variably pink, red or maroon. The exterior surfaces of the trap lobes, and all other parts of the foliage are yellowish green, except for a red line which often appears on the exterior of the traps below the margins of the lobes. Dionaea ‘ Fangzahn ‘ E.Koenig is easily propagated by leaf and rhizome cuttings.”

Dionaea 'Farou'

Registrant: A.Dalmais, 9. 6. 2014

green, however, the digestive glands are reddish as in the wild type. The petioles are long and elongated. The traps remain small. The trap margins are thinner and darker green than the trap interior. The teeth along the trap margins are comparatively short and slightly inflexed, those near the trap apex and base being shorter than those at half length of either margin. Each trap has 4 transparent trigger hairs (instead of 6 in the wild type).”

Dionaea 'FFT Stegosaurus'

Registrant: J.Moscoso, 7. 7. 2019

Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis sawtooth-type cultivars by its teeth pattern; the cilia consist of one long tooth in between two smaller teeth. Traps are green, but turn light red when exposed to direct sunlight. The foliage is lime green, the leaf petioles do not become thin during the summer, and maintain part of the leaf blade. The foliage does not grow upright during the summer, but remains relatively close to the ground as other low growing cultivars.”

strange shape of the traps – they look like molten or melted plastic. During spring, the traps can look like the typical Venus flytrap, but during summer and autumn most of the later traps look molten (see Fig. 2), even petioles can appear molten (see Fig. 3). Sometimes plants do not produce typical traps in the spring, but directly produce molten traps. Because of the shape of the traps, this Venus flytrap does not catch much prey so the inside of the traps are a deep red color during most of the year.”

Dionaea 'FTS Crimson Sawtooth'

Registrant: S.Doonan, M.Miller, 07.05.2013

Crimson Sawtooth ‘ M.Miller produce leaves up to 8 cm long bearing traps up 3.5 cm in length. The marginal lases are reduced to variable triangles that are up to 4 mm long. The foliage may be entirely deep crimson or maroon, or may have bands of greenish orange colouration close to the margins of the lobes. The marginal lashes are consistently bright red. The contrast between the different parts of the trap can be very striking and cause the reduced marginal lashes to resemble flames. Dionaea ‘ FTS Crimson Sawtooth ‘ M.Miller is similar to Dionaea ‘ Bohemian Garnet ‘ M.Srba and Dionaea ‘ Scarlet Bristle ‘ R.Keehn , but differs from both of these cultivars in that it grows mostly upright throughout spring and summer months. Dionaea ‘ FTS Crimson Sawtooth ‘ M.Miller also produces larger leaves than Dionaea ‘ Bohemian Garnet ‘ M.Srba. It also bears similarity to Dionaea ‘ Red Piranha ‘ E.Read, but its upright foliage is shorter, and sturdier. Dionaea ‘ FTS Crimson Sawtooth ‘ M.Miller is a slow growing cultivar, but exhibits greater vigour that most other red Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis variants. It produces many offshoots during each growing season and is easily propagated by division. The flowers of this cultivar sometimes exhibit red stigmas.”

Dionaea 'FTS Flaming Lips'

Registrant: S.Doonan, M.Miller, 07.05.2013

leaves up to 13 cm long that bear robust traps up to 5 cm in length. The leaf bases are thick and sturdy. The shape and length of the marginal lashes alters over the growing season. They are usually simple triangular structures on leaves produced during spring (similar to Dionaea ‘ Dentate Traps ‘ B.Rice), but progressively becoming more divided with many serrations as the growing season progresses (similar to Dionaea ‘ Bohemian Garnet ‘ M.Srba). The traps of Dionaea ‘ FTS Flaming Lips ‘ M.Miller are variably red, with yellow and orange colouration close to the margins of the lobes and across the reduced marginal lashes. The leaf bases and petioles are yellowish green, although all parts of the foliage may suffuse almost entirely red in winter, at which time the traps may turn purplish. Dionaea ‘ FTS Flaming Lips ‘ M.Miller is extremely vigorous, and produces many offshoots during the growing season. Plantlets attain maturity far faster than most other cultivars, and division of offshoots proves the most reliable method to propagate this cultivar. Self-pollination of the flowers results in mixed offspring (approximately 20% of progeny inherit the red-leaf characteristic).”

Dionaea 'FTS Lunatic Fringe'

Registrant: M.Miller, 07.05.2013

and unusually erect foliage during spring and summer months that consists of long, narrow leaf bases (reminiscent of the cultivars Dionaea ‘ Spider ‘ A.Pearce and Dionaea ‘ WIP Slim Snapper ‘ B.Hanrahan & S.Doonan ) and traps that are up to 4 cm long. The traps are occasionally partly fused at the distal end. and usually have only two trigger hairs per lobe but nevertheless are fully functional. The leaves of Dionaea ‘ FTS Lunatic Fringe ‘ M.Miller are mostly yellowish green during the growing season, often with light reddish colouration on the interior surface of the lobes. During autumn and winter, the foliage may turn deep reddish in colour. Dionaea ‘ FTS Lunatic Fringe ‘ M.Miller is a vigourous and fast grower, and produces abundant offshoots. It is easily propagated by division.”

Dionaea 'FTS Maroon Monster'

Registrant: S.Doonan, M.Miller, 07.05.2013

traps up to 5 cm long, which constitute the largest of all red Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis variants. The foliage of this cultivar is variable in colour. Usually, the leaf bases are predominently green, but hued maroon, especially towards their edges. The traps are deep marron except for a narrow margin around the edges of the lobes which is bright lime green and in striking contrast to the rest of the trap. The marginal lashes may be yellowish green, but usually turn reddish purple as they age. The leaves are up to 14 cm long, and in spring, foliage is produced that develops at an angle of 30-45deg from the surface of the substrate. Unlike most red Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis variants, Dionaea ‘ FTS Maroon Monster ‘ M.Miller grows much faster and more vigorously than typical Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis. The flowers of this cultivar sometimes exhibit red stigmas. In all other regards, this cultivar is in line with wild type Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis.”

Dionaea 'FTS Purple Ambush'

Registrant: S.Doonan, M.Miller, 07.05.2013

saturated, reddish purple colouration across their inner surfaces. This colouration sometimes extends to the outer edges of the traps as well, but usually the exterior of the traps, and the leaf bases are yellowish green. A reddish purple band of colour is often present close to the margin of the lobes, below the lashes. According to Matt Miller, Dionaea ‘ FTS Purple Ambush ‘ M.Miller exhibits the most intense colouration of all of the thousands of distinct strains of Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis that have been cultivated at FlytrapStore. The contrast between the deeply-hued traps and the leaf bases adds to the beauty of this colourful cultivar. Dionaea ‘ FTS Purple Ambush ‘ M.Miller produce decumbent leaves throughout the growing season. In all other respects, including size and morphology, it is in line with wild type Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis.”

Dionaea 'FTS Shogun Star'

Registrant: S.Doonan, M.Miller, 07.05.2013

Star ‘ M.Miller are often forked, but not highly serrated, and may be variably curved towards the interior of the trap. In size, the foliage is the same as wild type Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis, but unlike typical plants and almost all cultivars, Dionaea ‘ FTS Shogun Star ‘ M.Miller produces upright leaves throughout the growing season. The traps curve backwards along the midrib but are fully functional and efficient at trapping prey. The foliage of Dionaea ‘ FTS Shogun Star ‘ M.Miller is pure yellowish green, with faint orange or reddish colouration developing on the interior of the traps of specimens grown exposed to direct sunlight. Overwintering specimens occasionally develop darker red colouration if exposed to cold temperatures. Dionaea ‘ FTS Shogun Star ‘ M.Miller produces offshoots in abundance. A single mature specimen may bear as many as thirty divisions during a single growing season. Young plants show excellent vigour, root easily and mature relatively quickly. All other aspects of the morphology are typical for the species.”

Dionaea 'FTS Yellow'

Registrant: S.Doonan, M.Miller, 07.05.2013

While several other strains are in cultivation and are purported to produce yellow leaves, in reality all are merely green variants of Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis. Dionaea ‘ FTS Yellow ‘ M.Miller is the only cultivar that currently exists that produces foliage that is truly banana-yellow in colour. The greater the intensity of sunlight that Dionaea ‘ FTS Yellow ‘ M.Miller is exposed to, the brighter its distinctive yellow colouration becomes. In all respects other than colouration, Dionaea ‘ FTS Yellow ‘ M.Miller is in line with typical, wild type Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis. Unfortunately, Dionaea ‘ FTS Yellow ‘ M.Miller is an extremely weak and slow growing cultivar, perhaps because of the scarcity of chlorophyll present in the leaves. It is currently being propagated in vitro by the FlytrapStore nursery as propagation by other means is slow and ineffective.”

up to 8 cm long that bear traps that are up to 4.8 cm in length. The marginal lashes are reduced to jagged, triangular projections along the margin of the trap lobes. The edge of the trap lobes variably undulates, particularly in adult plants during summer and early autumn. The traps of very young plants or mature specimens in autumn may lack this distinctive undulation. The interior surfaces of the traps are bright red, while the lobe margins and all other parts are yellowish green. Occasionally, a red line may be present on the outer surface of the traps, below the margins of the lobes. Dionaea ‘ Giant Clam ‘ J. & M. Srba is similar to Dionaea ‘ Whale ‘ G.Hoogenstrijd, which was discovered more recently. Compared to this cultivar, Dionaea ‘ Giant Clam ‘ J. & M. Srba is considerably larger, and the edges of the lobes may undulate to a far greater extent. This cultivar is easily propagated by the division of offshoots, rhizome cuttings and leaf cuttings.”

Dionaea 'Ginormous'

outdoors at home with my other flytraps and by the end of that summer it had grown remarkably large again! Now, after growing it for a few years, I have realized that it is possibly the biggest and best flytrap cultivar so far, producing traps that rival those of the now famous and mighty Dionaea ‘ B52 ‘ B.Rice (Figs. 2, 3, 4). It seems to be slightly more vigorous than Dionaea ‘ B52 ‘ B.Rice especially when grown outdoors. It can also be distinguished from that clone because the petioles tend to be longer and the interiors of the traps are very red, but often not quite as dark red as Dionaea ‘ B52 ‘ B.Rice. I am quite sure that it is not Dionaea ‘ B52 ‘ B.Rice, as this flytrap had been there in Albion since at least 1988, long before Dionaea ‘ B52 ‘ B.Rice was even a glimmer in Henning von Schmeling’s eye.”

Green Schuppenstiel ‘ M.Maier may reach 5.6 cm in length.Their upper surface is variably covered in wrinkles giving it a scaled appearance. The traps are up to 3 cm and are fully functional. They are slightly curved along the midrib and have distinct margins reminiscent of Dionaea ‘ Zickzackkiefer ‘ E.Koenig. All parts of the foliage appear pure yellowish green, even in specimens that are exposed to direct sunlight. In all other respects, Dionaea ‘ Green Schuppenstiel ‘ M.Maier is in line with wild type Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis. This cultivar produces many offshoots and can be easily propagated by division.”

Dionaea 'Green Wizard'

Registrant: G.Hoogenstrijd, 10.05.2013

short and narrow leaves bearing rotund traps that are up to 3 cm long. The marginal lashes are extremely short and resemble small spikes. The foliage is arranged in a compact, decumbent rosette that is up to 11 cm in diameter. All parts of the foliage are yellowish green, except the interior surfaces of the trap lobes which suffuse faint pinkish red in specimens exposed to direct sunlight. Dionaea ‘ Green Wizard ‘ G.Hoogenstrijd bears similarity to Dionaea ‘ Coquillage ‘ G.Bily, although differs in colouration. Dionaea ‘ Green Wizard ‘ G.Hoogenstrijd is best propagated by rhizome cuttings.”

Dionaea 'Gremlin'

Registrant: D.Collingsworth, 23. 10. 2012

years from a small clump, I realized that this plant was something special. Clearly this is an extremely vigorous clone that has a bizarre obsession with freely dividing and clumping. All you need to do is apply plenty of distilled water, then sit back and watch it multiply like a gremlin. While the plant is entirely golden green, new traps may blush a very light pink when they first open in strong light. This fades away to green as they mature, but, because of this, I doubt that it is truly anthocyanin free. It can be distinguished from Dionaea ‘ Justina Davis ‘ B.Rice by the pink blush in newly opened traps and its vigorous clumping nature.”

Dionaea 'Harmony'

Registrant: C.Klein, S.Glied, C.Paul, M.Stoeckl, 14.05.2013

M.Stoeckl produces prostrate foliage that consists of short, narrow leaf bases and oval traps that are curved along the midrib. The traps are up to 3.8 cm long, and in mature specimens, have very distinctive marginal lashes with swollen ends. The ends of the lashes resemble little knobs on long narrow spikes. Uniquely, some of the terminal knobs are Y- or T-shaped. All parts of the foliage are yellowish green, except the interior surfaces of the trap lobes which suffuse a very faint reddish hue when exposed to direct sunlight. In all other respects, Dionaea ‘ Harmony ‘ C.Klein, S.Glied , C.Paul & M.Stoeckl is inline with typical, wild type Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis. This cultivar can be easily propagated by rhizome cuttings.”

the nominate form. This plant follows the already described annual cycle. The plant starts in spring with the first set of prostrate leaves with short petioles, after flower these are followed by long petiolate mid-summer leaves, to form the last set of wider short petiolate winter leaves in late summer or autumn. The leaf rosette reaches a diameter of ca. 10 cm and individual traps may attain a size of up to ca. 3 cm. The red colouration of the leaves depends, however, strongly on light conditions. Only plants exposed to full sunlight colour more or less intensely red or red-brown. In winter the plants frequently get green leaf margins or even whole plant portions that do not receive sufficient light remain dark green. As soon as the plants are exposed to more intense sunlight, the colour begins to change to typical again.”

The margins of the trap lobes are lined with short, stout, inward-pointing marginal lashes. The orientation of the lashes prevents some traps from fully closing, although others may be fully functional. When grown exposed to direct sunlight, the interior surfaces of the traps develop pinkish red colouration. Most other parts of the foliage are yellowish green. The marginal lashes are pale in colour and can appear white. Dionaea ‘ Jaws Smiley ‘ G.Hoogenstrijd must be propagated vegetatively. This cultivar can be easily propagated by rhizome cuttings.”

Traps that are not yet fully grown look like bean sprouts. When the traps are fully grown, they become broader in shape. The sawteeth along the trap margin of Dionaea ‘ Korean Melody Shark ‘ J.Gi-Won & W.H.Yoon are broader, shorter, and are arranged in a irregular pattern compared to those of its parents.

The inner surfaces of the trap lobes suffuse pinkish red. If grown exposed to very intense sunlight, the exterior of the traps may also suffuse reddish with a red line present on the exterior of the trap below the margins of the lobes. The marginal lashes are very variable in colour, and may be white or pinkish. In all other respects Dionaea ‘ Long Petiole ‘ C.Clayton is in line with wild type Dionaea Soland. ex Ellis.

fusion of only a few spines into each of its teeth. The result was that each tooth was about 2 mm wide and was flattened in cross section, in contrast with the normal capillary nature of typical Dionaea L. plants. The tips of the teeth on this peculiar plant are often are multiply divided, revealing the fused nature of the teeth. The teeth are oriented normally, unlike the distorted positioning as is often observed with Dionaea ‘ Fused Tooth ‘ P.D’Amato. (…) Another peculiarity with Dionaea ‘ Louchapates ‘ R.Anfraix is exhibited near the apex of the trap, opposite the petiole. In normal specimens of Dionaea L., this region of the leaf lobe margins lacks spines. But in Dionaea ‘ Louchapates ‘ R.Anfraix, marginal teeth are present on both lobes, all the way to the midpoint of the two lobe margins. This feature is also seen in Dionaea ‘ Cupped Trap ‘ S.Stewart, although that cultivar also has trap that is cupped like a spoon. After three years of cultivation, Dionaea ‘ Louchapates ‘ R.Anfraix has undergone normal dormancies and has been propagated vegetatively. The progeny are showing the same features as the parent plant. This cultivar is not a member of the Dionaea L. Dentate Traps Group since its teeth originate from a fusion of multiple marginal spines, and are not short and triangular.”
