Well, technically it could still survive, just not in the same place or condition. It also might would have to be renamed to "venus flyingtrap".

You're welcome.

They regularly experience hurricanes in the wild, so there's no reason that they couldn't provided their pot isn't blown away.

Everything happens for a reason. Sometimes the reason is that I make bad decisions.
