You can pull them out if you'd like and don't think you'll damage the traps. Otherwise, if you leave them be, they should reopen in a couple of days. When plants are actively growing during the main part of the season, traps often grow inside of each other and I just let them be.

You're very welcome!

Awesome! Thanks for the great feedback Nick. We're going to expand our inventory of flytrap clones this year and we'll have a larger selection later this summer and even more next year. I'm excited about making many clones available to people that are currently unavailable or very hard to find in the US.

What's the red one? I have royal red but that's about it. I like that VFT!

Nice! Those plants look awesome!

the red ones just a typical "red" venus flytrap nothin to fancy

Typical red? I have never heard of such a thing!

Nor have I

Steve and I decided to call them that because they're seed raised VFTs that are red in coloration. Since they're raised from seed, they aren't any particular clone. But they don't have any distinguishing characteristics that would make them warrant a name, so we decided to call them "typical" red Venus fly traps or "seed-raised" red flytraps.

w0ot so stamp it! "typicel red" it is! matt i do have a question about the tc clump i got, how large do they get? are they like the "cupped" traps i have?

Those were a few baby Red Piranha plants that I sent you. The Red Piranha is an average to large sized clone (much larger than Cupped Trap). They will get fairly large when they're mature. Those were fairly small (and the only ones I had out of TC and hardened off), so they may take a couple years to reach maturity.

Thanks for the info Matt! Hmmmm...I don't usually buy CPs anymore, but it would be fun to get ahold of some of those
