These guys are finally starting to look nice after a few tough years. There is a typical in the middle of the pot.

Thank you! I bought a big mouth from you guys a few years ago. After coming close to death more than a few times, it has become many and they have finally started to take off ! :-)

Thank you! Actually, the big mouth that divided into all of these was the first Venus flytrap that has survived my care. I am just finally starting to get the hang of it. :-)

I'm so sorry I didn't see this sooner. Thank you for the kind words :)

I don't do anything special I guess...

I do have an obsession with pulling off dead and dying leaves. I have needle nose tweezers specifically for it. I have a small, cheap greenhouse that I keep all of my VFTs in to protect them from the rain. I prefer to be able to control how much water they get. :) I bottom water mostly. Umm... I've really learned everything I know from this website.

I just switched to 100% New Zealand LFS this year. I'll post pictures later in the growing season :) everything looks a little sad now. They're still recovering from the shock of being repotted.

Awesome.
How many Big mouths are in there(approximately)?
The one trap which is exactly middle of the image looks somewhat similar to Matt's profile picture.
