Like the title says, I am wanting a type of red flytrap, the more red on it the better.

I am just beginning growing VFT so my variety as not as vast as most so I am looking for some help and to trade. These are plants I have:

About 14 typical VFT, many of the ones I have are very unique in characteristics (one specifically has extremely vigorous growth, even more so than my Vigorous and is growing a lot of cup-style traps)

5-6 Jaws VFT ( 1 mature, a couple young adult, a few younger seedlings)
1 Vigorous VFT
1 seed grown VFT
2 Dorsera capensis
1 Sarracenia purpurea (I just got this and would rather not trade it)

And some random plants:
1 Habanero plant (still waiting on some peppers but can mail out some peppers to get the seeds from)
1 Jalapeño plant (peppers are great with a lot of growth, can take seeds from)

I recommend the pink Venus. I have a few of them and a maroon monster. The only difference I notice after they've been in full sun for awhile is that my maroon monster puts out some upright growth while my pink Venus stays ground hugging. Both get a nice deep maroon color though. :)

Ya I am still open! I traded off one of my Jaws VFT and but I should still have some Vigorous and Jaws left too. The Jaws I have are adult size, pretty big traps and great coloration. The Vigorous is still a younger plant.
