where are venus fly traps from

Venus flytraps are from the coastal wetlands of North and South Carolina in the United States , with their native range centered in North Carolina.

Quick Scoop

  • They are not from Venus.
  • They grow naturally in boggy, nutrient-poor habitats along the Carolina coast.
  • Their wild range is very limited, which is one reason they’re protected and often sold from cultivated sources instead of being collected from the wild.
