What is the length of the roots on a Venus Flytrap?

The roots of a Venus flytrap (Dionaea muscipula) are typically short and fibrous, averaging about 2 to 4 inches in length. These roots are relatively shallow, extending mainly within the top few inches of soil, which helps the plant absorb nutrients and water effectively in its native wetland habitat. Despite their short length, the roots are crucial for anchoring the plant and supporting its carnivorous lifestyle.
