This is it! THE LARGEST TRAPS WE'VE EVER SEEN! Out of the thousands of flytraps we have growing here at FlytrapStore, DC XL grows the largest traps of any flytrap we've ever grown. The first traps in spring are usually the largest and can approach 2 inches in size on a fully grown DC XL flytrap. In addition to being ginormous for a Venus flytrap, DC XL is also an extraordinarily hardy grower, more than any other type we know of. DC XL is a handsome hardy monster flytrap, and we learn to love it more and more as we watch it grow over the seasons.

    I ordered this plant along with two other variants and I was BLOWN AWAY by the massive freaking traps on this guy. I don't have a ruler but the biggest one has to be at least 1 1/2 inches already and its not even a fully developed plant yet. Im not sure how old this VFT is but i bet its got a long way to go before reaching adulthood.

    My order was shipped at lightning fast speed (I ordered one plant from a large, popular nursery and it has yet to be shipped, even as my box of VFTs came today). On this plant in particular of the three I ordered, it arrived extremely healthy and green (the other two smaller plants had some trouble, and one of them looks in rougher shape for sure, which makes me that much more impressed by the DCXL's tenacity). Overall the plant looks almost like it didn't forego lighting or watering for the past 5 days which is crazy to think about. A true monster!

    While the other smaller variants I ordered looked a bit rougher --one in particular looked pretty rough-- they did come as groups of plants so I got a bit of a 2 for 1 deal with them which is always nice. Im also going to attempt to take leaf pullings once they recover their strength, and ive already started feeding them to make them grow faster.

    If my primary concern was plant safety during transit, which I suppose it has to be since nobody can prevent a lack of light during transit for almost a week's time, the plants were shipped 100% secure. I have full confidence that my VFTs will bounce back (at least somewhat) after a few days.

    Would recommend these sellers and definitely recommend this variant above all else in particular. If you have to get a VFT, get this one.

    I ordered a "young"-sized plant and it arrived with 8 large traps, plus 2 more baby traps emerging. The plant was well-packaged (as always from FTS) and half of the traps were open upon arrival. The plant I received is a great example of DC XL; I knew that by ordering from FTS, I would get a healthy, well-potted plant that was above average size for the price -- and I did! Thanks, Matt and Leah!

    I really appreciate the great service (awesome care instructions and personalized thank you note) and fast secure shipping. The DCXL I ordered arrived beautifully. It is dormant and a young plant but I know come summer it will take off. Definitely looking forward to seeing it grow and will for sure be ordering more from FTS to add to the collection. Thank you!

    I ordered a starter DCXL, and as always was packaged very well and shipped fast! The flytrap was bigger then I expected for a starter and had quite a few traps on it. I absolutely cant wait to see what this flytrap is fully capable of! Thanks again Matt and Leah! A++

    Bought as a starter plant in fall 2020, in just a year it has gone from 3/8 in. traps to pushing 1 1/8 in! Sturdy, vigorous & robust dark green growth, and beautiful rusty red to dark rosy colored traps in full sun. This Giant does not disappoint!

    Just received my young DC XL and have to say it is one amazing cultivar! Already has some traps on it easily 1.5”! This is my 3rd VFT from FTS with 5 more ordered, hands down the best place to order VFTs !! They really put other companies to shame!

    I have purchased 15 plants from The Flytrap Store And out of all of them this one gets the most attention. It is the biggest, sturdiest and possibly the strongest of all my plants. It's also an excellent hunter! Every plant I have got here arrived healthy, well packaged and so far I could not be happier!!!
