I kind of like this new flytrap originating from Europe. It has really interesting trap edges that thick and rough where the marginal spines (teeth) should be.

Where do you live? They're not for sale in the US just yet.

Does that mean they will be for sale in the US in the near future?

Hopefully within the next year or two. I have it in TC now, but I'm not sure if it will stay clean. But if it does, we should have some to offer next year.

Then you can purchase from here!: http://www.araflora.com/p1541/venus_fly ... eaky_star)

Kind of expensive still at 50 Euro (~$70 USD), but once it gets more distributed, I'm sure prices will come down.

No idea. You'll have to try to contact araflora.com to see if that's possible.
