I love this little plant! A friend gave it to us for helping her repot her Venus fly trap collection back in February. It didn't do much for the first couple of months while it adjusted to our growing window over the kitchen sink, but now check it out!!!

Pretty plant! (But be very careful, AVs can be as seductive as VFTs 8-) )

I don't see why not. But we don't grow our flytraps nor our African violet under lights. Flytraps do best in full sun and the violet seems happy in our sunny windowsill.
