When you get them from Lowes, Wally World, etc. do they already exhibit the unique characteristics or is it once you have had them for a while? Other than the Rocket Farms clones from Walmart, everything I see is the anemic long leafed green blah. Even when the plants look healthy, they always look like the typical typical.

The same goes for the Sarrs that you rescued. Were they the rhizomes in dried peat moss pots or were they already growing so that you could see what they were?
Rocket Farm VFT's seem to put most of their energy into constantly dividing and less into individual robust plant growth which is good or bad depending on your priorities.

The vibrant "hot pink" coloring in the store is a mystery that doesn't seem to replicate on subsequent traps once "rescued". Maybe they need to stay in the cube with poor artificial lighting and little to no watering to maintain that feature. :?

They are excellent fly catchers with fast traps so I'll give them that.
