FTS Yellow August 2011

[mmlr38]

Got such nice feedback from the Deep Red Guerrilla and Purple Ambush thread, I figured I'd share some photos I recently took (by request) of the FTS Yellow flytrap. FTS Yellow is a plant I started from seed in vitro in 2008. It's tentatively named "FTS Yellow" for obvious reasons

Enjoy!

Yup, it definitely yellow. What is the red one next to it? The traps look large.

Thanks for the nice feedback everyone!

Yes, they're fairly large. That's a VERY SMALL FTS Maroon Monster

Traffic lights!

Hah, I hadn't even thought of that

Wow, very cool coloration. Does it stay as such in full sun??

That Maroon Monster is not VERY SMALL

Maroon monster...

 

[Sig]

Does it have any more or less protection against harsh sun, like red ones?

I've not put this plant in full sun for very long yet, though my greenhouse has clear paneling on it so it only blocks a bit of the UV. But the plant has stayed bright yellow since I deflasked it about 2 years ago now.

And the only reason that Maroon Monster hasn't shipped yet is because it's "too small"

Does it have any more or less protection against harsh sun, like red ones?

I can't really answer that because I've not left it out in full sun for very long. But I sent one to Steve (my business partner) and it did fine outside in the sun until a bird dug it up and left it to dry up and die

Why do I have to be color deficient? It looks the same of the one on the left to me.

Woah, Matt. Thats a blinding yellow!
