3. A Versatile ‘Carnivorous and Cute’ Venus Flytrap Design
Give ’em fair warning with this ‘Carnivorous and Cute’ design featuring a Venus flytrap and the fly that’s about to become its lunch. This design is one of ours — Scrappy Gardeners. We’ve branched into making some carnivorous and houseplant-themed designs on Redbubble.

4. A Sassy Venus Flytrap Coffee Cup
Send a message to your coworkers with this cute Venus flytrap coffee cup. While the design is pretty and pretty funny, what I like most is that it holds 15 ounces. Small coffee cups just don’t cut it. Even better? It’s microwave and dishwasher-safe.

6. The Savage Garden, Required Reading for Carnivorous Plant Fans
This is pretty much the bible for anyone serious about growing carnivorous plants or anyone looking to understand how to care for a new plant.

The shirt also has 4.8 stars, and is 100% cotton. Buy it here.
8. A Handmade Venus Flytrap Greeting Card
I bet most carnivorous plant parents have never received a Venus flytrap card before. This unique, quilled 3D card doubles as art — your gift recipient can frame it after opening. The colors in it are really pretty, and it will be one card that doesn’t get thrown in the trash immediately after opening.
