That is an absolutely beautiful trap! How old is the plant? I had already planned to buy G16 next year in the spring to see how it does, and that picture assures it.

Thank you! The plant I got from another member on here and is about a year old. I have been taking care of it very well and its coloration is extremely vivid. My other traps (Jaws, Typical, B52, FTS Maroon Monster, Vigorous, Seed-growns) are sharp, don't get me wrong, but this takes the cake. In the same conditions as my others (I am located in Michigan so I am not sure the humidty, outdoors, 100% LFSM, 14" deep pots) their coloration happens much quicker and more intense. The trap closing speed is also quicker than my other traps, althought my FTS MM is right there with is. G16 is one of my favorite cultivars that I own right now.
