Alvin, I have some I think, but it will take me a bit to get them up on-line... I"ll have to scan since they are on 35MM...
sadly, I am having another bad year with my flytraps... recently a 'herd' (or something freaky like that) of daddy long legs paid me a visit, and my flytraps nailed tons of them... every trap that nailed on digested for a few days, then turned black.. Daddylonglegs are not good for your plants is the obvious lesson... though my sars seem to handle it OK when I shove one down their throats. NOt the flytraps though... waaahhhh!
could have been worse, and I am sure they will all recover.
Thanks Ram Puppy. I just wanted to compare how well mine are doing, and there doesn't seem to be many photos. People are also talking about 2" traps and stuff!
I've never had a problem with daddy long legs with my flytraps - they've eaten a couple. It's strange that they should all go black seeing as they seem to catch them reasonably frequently in the wild.
You say another bad year for your flytraps - what;s gone wrong before?
I see that the GW subject has sprung up again! Interesting reading but I don't think I'll tip my toe into the water
