My sunlight deprived VFTs

[edwardyeeks]

The typical VFT grows trap that lie down on the ground. There are cultivars or types that produce erect stalks and hold the traps upwards. Mine is the typical one. Btw alpiner, just to correct you that there is only one species of VFT which is Dionaea Muscipula. The reason why they are different is due to mutations during tissue culture and variation in seedlings.

Wow really nice VFTs....How do you guys even keep it for a year + Mine usually starts to die off as they go towards dormancy...

Thx. Learning something new, next time I'll call my thread "My mutant VFTs". From evolution standpoint, new species created through mutation. But I guess this is not the case here because all the traits from TC and seed grown VFT does not 100% pass down to next gen. It'll be great if someone can share the seedlings from akai ryu, fused tooth or anything that's quite different from typical VFT. Or these mutants are sterile?
