The first are typical flowers in live moss. Note the date I put the stems in the moss.
The 1 flower is a Maroon Monster from yesterday. Thanks KK. The 3 flowers is Maroon Monster today. And then the hopeful mother.

Awesome. Looking good. My MM just opened the first flower two days ago.

A garden to walk in and immensity to dream in--what more could he ask? A few flowers at his feet and above him the stars.

Mines are also making flowers too. Some of them have two flower stalks on on plant.

If nobody realized it, I got the Maroon Monster from KK. My first flower opened 2 days ago also.
The local farmers are just planting crops so I am not surprised that the Fly Traps are just taking off.

I love your pics, I get excited when I see you start a new thread.

My traps are just now starting to wake up from dormancy, its going to be awhile yet before they start putting up flower stems.

Just the way it goes this far north.

Mistakes were made

Sawtooth x Parahna. This is 2 plants in 2 cups. Both with flowers.
The 2nd picture is Grun top, Deep Red Guerilla middle, BZ 1955 bottom. I was going to be more strategic about crossing them but maybe next year. I have cut some flower stems off because I don't want them in the mix. Happy Spring

After the bees get done pollinating the flowers they can head down a little lower and get caught in the traps. Win. Win.

Hey thanks. I thought I would try to keep them separate but there is no way with my set up. And I got too busy.
