Dionaea muscipula 'Coquillage' is a distinctive European cultivar whose name refers to a shell-like form. It was selected for unusual trap development that consistently produces a highly ornamental appearance unlike that of standard Venus Flytraps.Mature traps often exhibit modified lobes that create a folded or shell-like structure. The traps may show varying levels of red pigmentation while retaining functional trigger hairs and carnivorous behaviour. The overall appearance is both unusual and immediately recognisable.Collectors value 'Coquillage' as an important morphological cultivar. Its shell-like trap structure is maintained through vegetative propagation and contributes to the remarkable diversity of cultivated Venus Flytraps.
