Earlier this year i saved a couple of flytraps from those death cube things. At the time they all had color of some sort in their traps. I potted 4 of them up in a single 10 inch pot, in a peat:perlite mix, 50:50, and they sit in my back yard where they all get about 10 hours of sun every day. After they got acclimated and started growing new traps, I noticed that two of the 4 traps started to grow lower to the ground in a rossette fashion while the other two started growing up right. The up right ones started getting color in their traps again while the other ones started producing just green traps. Dose this sometimes happen or would this be considered an all green trap? Also, the rossette growing ones seem to grow a little slower than the other two.

If they're from one of those death cubes, they are most likely typicals, and under strong light, will eventually develop red

Yea I bought one of those Death Cube VFT's. No they are not all green, once they get enough sun, they will start to color. But it wont be a deep red like Steve's plants. I can put some pictures up later if you want.
