Nice list!

Very nice! You have some flytraps that I don't yet grow!!

Amazing list!

Thanks! I've been feeding my obsession for over 20 years. Now I need a smaller house with a bigger yard.

Great list of VFTs MikeB! A few really interesting crosses in there too. With that many cultivars, I’m curious what your favorites might be if you don’t mind?

I have so many nice ones that it's hard to single some out. If I had to choose just a few, I really like these:

Big Vigorous
Fine Tooth x Red
Low Giant
Wally
Yellow

In the all-red category, most of them are recent acquisitions. Royal Red did well this past summer, and Pink Venus looks promising. I'm hoping that my Maroon Monsters kick into high gear in the spring.

Those would all be on my top list of plants too, except Yellow. I've never been very impressed with that plant (if it is the clone I'm thinking of). Our FTS Yellow is an amazing yellow color but an exceptionally weak grower.

FTS Maroon Monster will definitely be on the list too! It is the most vigorous red-leafed flytrap I've ever grown and I've grown pretty much all of them at this point, except some of the newest ones coming out, which don't seem to have the same size potential nor vigor.

I picked up my Yellow cultivars from Jeremiah in Colorado (snagged a pot full of them on eBay). They grew okay for me this summer, but I've had them for less than a year. I'll see how well they do in the spring. They definitely live up to the name: an odd shade of yellow but perfectly healthy.

My Maroon Monsters sputtered this year due to old soil. I repotted them a few months ago, keeping my fingers crossed that I don't have any crazy weather this winter.

ssssss
Do you know his source for them? I think the primary Yellow cultivar in circulation is the one that Cook's sells. It doesn't look very yellow to me but rather a light shade of green.

Hope the FTS Maroon Monsters boom into spring growth for you. Feed them and they go crazy!

Unfortunately, I don't know where Jeremiah got them from. I noticed that the traps get a bit pink inside when they're cold (I'm running mid-30's to mid-50's here, and the plants are outdoors, exposed to the elements).

I snagged a pot of his 'alba' flytraps this fall. Believe it or not, they're brighter green than the Grün cultivar plants (but with smaller traps).

Interesting. Keep me in mind if you have a division you can part with!

Here are the Yellow cultivars at auction time: And here they are now, in dormancy: It's been cold here lately (dropped to 27 F / -3 C last night), and the plants are looking a bit pink. They aren't huge plants, but their unusual color makes them stand out in the crowd.

Here's a pic of the All Green cultivars at auction time: I like having some non-red flytraps in my collection, adds some variety and color contrast. It looks like there are 5 or 6 plants in the pot. When I move them to a bigger pot in the spring, I'll send one your way.

That does look like the Yellow cultivar that comes from Cook's that I've grown in the past.

Sweet, thanks so much!
