About how many different plants are in there? Where are they planted? That is an incredible pic! Nice job!
 
Oh..thank you for the compliment!
Well, give me five minutes(more??) and i'll count them

No, in fact i don't really know how many are they, but i can tell you that they are growing from divided plants.Last year,I cultivated  them outdoors in full sun in a 20cm X 25 plastic pot.(sorry i m not able to do the conversion, i'm french)
Now, since they woke up from dormancy, i have repotted them in a larger pot.I use 70% peat and 30%vermiculite + lot of sunlight + rain water.

Great pic! Will they turn red, or are they all green during the growing season?

The reason I'm asking is that I am looking for a nice pic of health cluster VFTs (like yours) with red traps to use as a personal wallpaper screen on my computer desktop.

I have searched the internet for such a picture, but can only find small jpg size, which when enlarged to fit my screen, results in a very poor blurry pic

If you or anyone out there have such a picture (approx. 800x600, give or take

), would you e-mail it to me.

Thanks,
 
Hi
No they don't become deep red as many of VFTs...only soft orange -red coloured.
Also, on the picture, most of the traps are closed, so you can't see the colouration inside..
