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..
