Dionaea muscipula Koi (Shipped Bare-Root)

Dionaea muscipula Koi (Shipped Bare-Root)Koi was named and introduced by Gerrit Gassmann of Gassmann Carnivores in Germany. It is grouped among the artistic cultivars for its aesthetic resemblance to the dappled patterning of Kohaku and Sanke koi fish. The standout feature is its variegated, marbled coloration traps display blotchy patches of bright orange red mixed with yellowish green or cream on the same lobe, creating a high contrast splotchy effect unlike any solid colored cultivar.
