FlytrapCare Carnivorous Plant Forums

The rhizome or bulb of a flytrap can't be seen from above ground. However, the number of growth points is a good indicator of how many rhizomes there are beneath the surface.

In your photo, it would appear that there are at least 3 points from which new traps are emerging. So if you were to repot, and you probably should, you would have at least 3 separate plants, each with their own rhizomes, in that pot.

Flytraps always grow better when divided and given their own space. Also, it is important to repot flytraps at least once a year as they really don't like anaerobic soil at all and benefit greatly from fresh, airy soil.

I thought it looked fairly freshly potted. Given that, I'd say just wait until next year. It is growing well now so no need to disturb it again.

Next year when you repot, simply pull apart all of the rhizomes. Anywhere you see traps emerging from is technically a separate plant. Sometimes it requires a gentle tug to get them to separate but often times, if you just rinse them in a bowl of water, they will naturally separate from each other.
