hello lads and laddies, I have a question about this particular cultivar here
http://www.flytrapcare.com/store/venus- ... s-fly-trap#
in the picture I would describe it having extremely deep red traps with a pale green almost white body and I was absolutely enthralled by this cultivar. looking around and searching about i found out that its more like a typical with bit bigger traps. is matt well versed in plant magic or is my eyes playing tricks on me?

If you read the product description (instead of going primarily off the images) it's pretty accurate as to what the plant looks like. Bimbo is a giant flytrap (among the largest) with excellent red coloration on the interior of the traps.

In the photos, I think they're a bit oversaturated, so the green looks lighter than it should (I think I took the photos in full direct sunlight).

Regardless, it's a great plant. Very similar in size, growth habit and coloration to G16.
