Dionée "Venus Flytrap"

La Dionaea muscipula, communément appelée "Attrape-mouche" ou "Venus Flytrap", est une plante carnivore originaire des marais subtropicaux de la Caroline du Nord et du Sud aux États-Unis. Elle est célèbre pour ses pièges en forme de mâchoires qui se referment rapidement sur les insectes et les araignées, attirés par le nectar de la plante. Ses feuilles sont bordées de cils et possèdent des poils sensitifs qui déclenchent la fermeture du piège lorsqu'ils sont stimulés. Entretien : Lumière : La Vénus attrape-mouche nécessite beaucoup de lumière directe. Idéalement, elle doit recevoir au moins 4 à 6 heures de soleil direct par jour. En intérieur, elle peut être placée près d'une fenêtre bien ensoleillée. Eau : Utilisez de l'eau distillée ou de l'eau de pluie pour l'arroser, car elle est sensible aux minéraux présents dans l'eau du robinet. Le sol doit toujours être humide, mais pas détrempé. La technique de la soucoupe est recommandée : placez le pot sur une soucoupe remplie d'eau et laissez la plante absorber l'eau par le bas. Sol : Un mélange de tourbe et de sable ou de perlite est idéal, car il assure un bon drainage tout en retenant l'humidité. Évitez les terreaux riches en nutriments, car ils peuvent endommager les racines. Température et Humidité : La Dionaea préfère des températures entre 20 et 30°C durant la journée et un peu plus fraîches la nuit. Une humidité relative de 50 à 70 % est idéale. Alimentation : La plante se nourrit principalement d'insectes vivants. Évitez de lui donner des aliments humains ou des insectes morts. Elle est capable de capturer suffisamment de proies par elle-même si elle est cultivée en extérieur. En intérieur, vous pouvez occasionnellement la nourrir avec de petits insectes vivants.
