What is wrong with my Venus Flytrap?

Hi,

I would appreciate help from more experienced users. Does this look like a healthy plant to you? I bought it about 2 months ago. It didn't move in all that time, didn't grow a single new leaf. The moss is almost non-existent, and it is white in some parts, I don't know if that means anything. No leaves are turning black, but there is no new growth as well. Nothing in the last two months, since I bought it.

Is it possible it was dormant when I bought it? And it's still dormant?

Yes, it looks quite heatly. But if you're growing it indoors, you're going to want to take it out of the tray of water (it's very easy to over water plants indoors). It looks like it recently flowered, which is probably why it's not growing right now. Flytraps stall in growth for a while after flowering, even if the flower stalks are cut off.
