I got lucky and picked up these 2 typicals at Lowes yesterday. Not very typical looking. One with short cilia and very arched and one with basically no cilia.

I've notice Lowes sometime have better looking unidentified variation of typicals on there shelves.

Great finds KK! I typically don't pick up rescues from the big box stores, but if we had some like that here I would in a heartbeat.

I always look through the death dome flytraps at Walmart and Aldi to see if I can find something (a)typical. The best I found was one that had bright pink traps and cilia so I bought it but can't seem to get a repeat performance with the subsequent traps. I wonder if the flytrap farms use artificial lighting to bring out the colors before shipping them out because natural light sure doesn't do the trick for me.
