Being December, my flytraps are well into dormancy. Although my winters are barely anything, some of them are in quite a rest. I'm strangely proud of them.

But how are your flytraps right now? Post a picture and let's get a thread going.

With my daughter in school and real life to attend to, I haven't had much time to spend here, but I wanted to share some pics. All my flytraps took Las Vegas heat that reached 117F this summer in stride. They have certainly earned their winter rest!

All of the flower stalk cuttings have produced healthy plantlets. Here are two of them. The DCXL is growing in a Flytrap Store cup and began feasting on baby cockroaches mid-summer.

Yeah same here. My Maroon Monster specifically has been still catching stuff all the way up until the middle of December.
