Dionea muscipula 'Dente'. Dente or dentate form has unique saw or tooth like edges on the trap margins. Has hinged leaves with 3 or 4 sensitive hairs in the center of each lobe. When an insect touches the hairs, the hinge mechanism is triggered, and the leaves close quite rapidly, trapping the insect. Grow this in a terrarium or in a cool greenhouse or in a bog garden.
