Hey Esly,

I wrote a little bit about how the Venus flytrap got its name in my article on Background information:
http://www.flytrapcare.com/venus-fly-tr ... ?showall=1

And what do you need to know about how they cultivate? Do you mean if they're easy, moderate or hard to cultivate? Or do you need to know the basic rules of cultivation? If you need the basics of how to cultivate them, you can read these three articles on the main site for nearly all of the information:
Light for Venus fly traps
Water for Venus fly traps
Soil for Venus fly traps
Venus fly trap dormancy

If you have more questions or need more details, feel free to ask! Hope that helps...
