I started a lot of cultures from flower stalks I was able to harvest in early to mid June.  I was fortunate enough to get many of them to take and I now have quite a few different varieties going in cultures.

I posted an initial thread on the Red Piranha here:
Red Piranha and Cupped Trap cultuers
I posted an update of these cultures in the forum just about two weeks ago: Various Venus flytrap tissue cultures
but their growth since then is already fairly noticeable.

I just wanted to post an update of these cultures to give people an idea of how fast they can grow.

Jaws:

Red Piranha (for some reason this one isn't progressing as quickly):

Petite Dragon (check out the bizzare flowering that's taking place on that piece of tissue that used to be a flower bud):

Czech Giant:

Fang:

I just replated some of the cultures a couple of days ago. That piece of tissue with all of the buds on it had nearly all of the buds open. It was crazy looking. I cut off each flower bud and put them in different cultures. I'm hoping that they all take themselves.
