OK, here are a few shots of my Dracula. Bear in mind that it's still quite small and it's fully dormant right now. It gets nice coloration, but see the photos below to see why I'm not all that impressed with it compared to some other plants in my collection.
Sorry about the quality of these photos. The lighting this time of year is tough to work with and I was in a bit of a hurry.
This plant is perhaps the most vigorous plant I've ever seen. It gets insanely deep red traps, routinely has the red line on the outside of the trap, gets enormous traps and is just plain gorgeous. It's a seedling from Steve's 2008 FlytrapRanch mix and it was NOT started in tissue culture. It grew that large from seed in about 1.5 years...very vigorous plant.
The glare from the sun in this photo makes it hard to tell how red the trap really is.
And this plant gets the darkest red traps of any of the plants I have in my collection (hard to tell from the photos). It was started in tissue culture and I only have two of them right now:
