Protecting your crops has become more important than ever in Grow a Garden 2. With the new stealing mechanic allowing players to take crops during the night, having a strong defense can save you a lot of Sheckles and valuable harvests.
One of the best defensive plants currently available is the Venus Fly Trap. This Mythic crop not only looks intimidating but can also punish players who try to get too close to your garden. Here’s everything you need to know about getting and using the Venus Fly Trap in Grow a Garden 2.
What Is the Venus Fly Trap?
The Venus Fly Trap is a Mythic-tier crop that serves as both a plant and a security system for your farm. Unlike most crops that exist purely to make money, this plant has a special purpose. During the night cycle, it automatically attacks nearby players who enter its range.
When activated, the Venus Fly Trap will snap at intruders and deal significant damage, making it much harder for thieves to steal your crops. This makes it one of the most valuable defensive plants currently available in the game.
How the Venus Fly Trap Works
Once planted, the Venus Fly Trap remains active around your garden. If another player gets too close, the plant will target them and attack. Players bitten by the Venus Fly Trap will:
- Lose 75% of their health
- Lose a small amount of Sheckles
- Be discouraged from staying near your crops
However, there is one important thing to remember.
The Venus Fly Trap doesn’t always distinguish between enemies and the owner. If you interfere with the plant while it’s attacking or stand in the wrong place at the wrong time, you can also get bitten. Because of this, it’s a good idea to be careful when moving around your garden at night.
How to Get the Venus Fly Trap
The Venus Fly Trap Seed can be purchased from the Seed Shop. However, obtaining one isn’t easy because it rarely appears in stock.
- Appearance Chance: 1.43%
- Cost: 7,000,000 Sheckles
Since the stock chance is very low, you’ll need to check the shop regularly and be ready to purchase it immediately when it appears. If you have enough Sheckles saved up, don’t wait too long because valuable seeds often sell out quickly.
Venus Fly Trap Robux Price
Players who don’t want to wait for the seed to appear can purchase it using Robux. Available options include:
- 1 Seed – 799 Robux
- 3 Seeds – 2,397 Robux
- 10 Seeds – 7,990 Robux
This can be a faster option for players who want immediate access to one of the game’s strongest defensive crops.
Does the Venus Fly Trap Produce Fruit?
Yes, the Venus Fly Trap can produce fruit.
However, its main role is protecting your garden rather than generating profit.
A few things to know:
- It grows fruit very slowly.
- It is a single-harvest crop.
- Harvesting removes the plant permanently.
- You’ll need another seed if you want to plant it again.
Because of this, many players prefer keeping the Venus Fly Trap as a permanent defense rather than harvesting it immediately.
How to Tell When It’s Ready to Harvest
The Venus Fly Trap produces a fruit that appears inside its mouth. The fruit has a pink color and resembles a dragon fruit. When you notice the fruit growing inside the plant, you’ll know it is ready to harvest. Before collecting it, consider whether the harvest is worth losing your defensive plant.
The Venus Fly Trap is one of the most unique crops in Grow a Garden 2. While most plants focus on earning Sheckles, this Mythic crop focuses on protecting your farm from unwanted visitors. With the ability to remove 75% of a player’s health in a single bite, it can be a powerful deterrent during the night cycle.
If you spot a Venus Fly Trap Seed in the Seed Shop and have 7 million Sheckles ready, it’s worth grabbing before it disappears. Just remember that harvesting its fruit will remove the plant, so think carefully before turning your garden’s bodyguard into a quick profit.
