Just in case there is anyone out there that is not tired of looking at pics of dormant flytraps.
I took pictures of the exact same tub of flytrap seedlings I had photographed during the active summer growth period, but are now fully dormant for comparison side by side.(I plucked a couple out for TC).
These were germinated from seed in 2007. This is their second dormancy. Notice how the large leaves have turned black and were replaced by smaller ones with deeper colored traps. The dormant traps are only about half open and sluggish.
