All of these big trap cultivars (their traps are around 1.50 inches) look very similar to me:

Dionaea M. 'Gianormous'

Dionaea M. 'Big Vigorous'

Dionaea M. 'B-52'

Dionaea M. 'A2'

I guess that's why I really like the odd ball ones like Dionaea M. ' Triton'

and Dionaea M. 'Korean Melody Shark'

Thanks for looking.

Looks like those Tritons would do a good job trapping bugs since there is less chance of them escaping out the side like they sometimes do with regular traps. I keep mine outside though and would be concerned with the "cups" filling with water when it rains.

I keep all of my Venus Flytraps outside in the spring, summer, and fall - no bad effects from rain. I only bring them into the unheated garage in the winter.
