It's funny. When I bought my Jaws in the early spring from Matt, it had the most beautiful color. Slowly, it faded to just some hints of pink in the traps, and just in the last 2 weeks the red has just really filled it in. Jaws is my favorite!!

Mine too! I like Maroon Monster second, but that may change. ;) The Jaws I got was a young plant with one inch traps with just a hint of pink. I love the thick tissue on the traps, as well as the shark teeth and (hopefully) color.

There was another user on here who got a Maroon Monster young one spring and by the fall had 4 divisions, and a huge plant! Can't wait to see how mine does. Everyone always gets such BEAUTIFUL color on their Jaws! I like red, large traps, and triangular teeth, so next season I hope to combine that in FTS Flaming Lips! G16 will be next after that but it is out of my price range currently. Extremely Nice plants, and when will we get a picture of your Alien? ;)

The first time going through dormancy can be nerve-wracking, but it's pretty simple actually. Just don't let the plants freeze (ideally -- though they can stand a pretty good freeze) and allow them to get natural sunlight and everything should take care of itself :)
