Tonight, I've been checking on my Dionaea sedlings and noticed one, that is growing quite a bit differently. It only has one cotyledon. It looks like it is merged - something like siamese twins.

I have a bunch of seedlings going also, one has a heart shaped trap, almost like a triangle shape. Wish I had a good camera to take a picture, iPhone doesn't do very well with close ups.

How much sunlight do you give to your seedlings? I have seedlings but I'm unsure as to how much to give them

I know, right! It actually looks like completely different plant.

It grows a bit slower than all the other seedlings, but the first trap is finally forming. I'll see if it gets different than all the others. In the pot with red flytraps, there is one that has conjoined cotyledon, but not the whole, on top of it, it grows apart and seems normal. Strange as well as this one. :)
