What was the soil these were growing in like? xr280xr wrote:I'm surprised you went for the biggest flytraps you could find knowing how you love quirky traits over size.Well, the only plants that weren't "typical" looking were plants we (FlytrapStore) had sent to Dan to plant in the garden, like FTS Crimson Sawtooth and some short-toothed seed-grown flytraps. Otherwise, all of the flytraps looked fairly typical, so I just chose the largest ones
