I was feeding my Flytrap when I saw this hiding below one of the leaf. :o
Is this normal? :?
Can anyone tell me whether there are three traps or I have misunderstood something and also tell me that every trap opens like this(1st picture). ;)
*The picture of triple traps is second and third not first.

That's really cool! I know sometimes in the spring VFTs can put out some weirdly shaped traps. For a while my Akai Ryu was pushing out traps where one side had longer teeth than the other. They were fully functional just lopsided lol. Now the traps have evened out. Keep us posted with that 3-headed monstrosity! :)
