Multi-petaled flowers on my vft

Hey folks , My vft that i got from vft flowered a while ago and the weird thing about it is that the flower had more then the usual amount of petals . i thought that this was just 1 deformit and nothing to hassle about but then all the other flwoers bloomed and looked the same . Has anyone had this problem ? I don't think it's a problem but a cool mutation but if it keeps doing this every year and stays stable like this I might have a new cp cultivar

I think I'll call it Dionaea muscipula ' Tarnok ' just like the double petaled S. leucophylla ' Tarnok ' .
 
whoa thats awsome
but i think it wouldnt be a good cultivar becaues flowering for VFT as exhausting form whet ive heared

nice pict! i agree with you that it might be a candidate for a new cultivar. as one that has let his vft's flower for the first time this year, i can say that that's a really sweet flower!

i think it's time to divide and propagate!

peace,
tech...
 
Wow! I love the flower! I wish my VFT had flowers like that!
 
Cool a double vft! How bout Dionea muscipula 'california rose'?
 
Goldtrap,
The flower also looks like it has twice the number of anthers. Does the flower have two stigmas? I cannot tell from your photo.
 
Goldtrap,
  That's really cool!  Keep tabs on that bad boy!
 
Hmmm...Whats next a fully double red flowered vft? Maybe someday well raise vfts for there flowers as much as for there carnivorous habits:) Certainly start propagateing this plant!
