This beautiful book on Venus Flytraps makes a perfect Holiday gift. The first complete monograph of Dionaea muscipula, the world-famous "Venus's Flytrap". Described by Charles Darwin as "the most amazing plant in the world", this unmistakable insect-eating plant produces leaves that bear jaw-like lobes that dramatically snap shut when triggered.

Included in the book is a Venus flytrap cultivar chapter with detailed descriptions and photos of over 100 cultivated varieties from all over the world, some of which have never been documented before! This chapter is co-authored by Matt Miller of FlytrapStore.com and Matthias (Matze) Maier of Green Jaws Nursery.

Native to only a small part of North and South Carolina, Dionaea is the most iconic plant of the United States and all of the Americas, yet it often remains misunderstood.

Authored by Tim Bailey and Stewart McPherson, this long-awaited and visually beautiful book presents a uniquely detailed treatment of all aspects of the botanical history, ecology, evolutionary history, distribution, and cultivation of this miraculous plant.

Also included in this work are detailed descriptions and images of over 100 distinct horticultural cultivars from across the world. These include formally registered (officially recognized) cultivars, and others that have not yet been registered but are popular and well-known among horticulturists in many countries. Many of the featured cultivars have never before been documented or depicted, and are introduced here for the very first time. Many of the cultivar descriptions were written by Matt Miller of the FlytrapStore and many photos are also used with permission from the FlytrapStore. The cultivars covered in this work include:
