Venus fly trap still require light to cary out photosynthesis, despite the fact they are gaining some nourishment from capturing living prey.

are you particular you placed the fly some distance adequate down? there are tiny hairs that are prompted while touched and reason the catch to close. often i've got considered the for approximately $5-7. it quite is extraordinary that they bought it for under a greenback. i'm not too particular. i could in simple terms pass away it there for a rapid time be sure the fly isn't too huge and don't close the catch consisting of your arms, that motives the plant to lose potential or some thing

Their a plant. They need light to live.

Because they also use light to make food (chlorophyl) as well as eating flies.

Same reason that any other green plant does.
