Excellent flytrap cultivation and collection you have there Matt.
And I'm very impressed with how much your website as well as your collection has grown since you have gotten started with all of this, which wasn't really all that long ago.
I hope your business is going well for you in these challenging economic times.
But if you ever want to pick up some extra Canadian business, I'm sure there are a few here that would like to snap up some of your very fine vft offerings.
Take care, and thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the very nice replies everyone. You Canadians are a nice bunch of people  And that's the deepest red plant I've ever seen too! Maybe a new cultivar?  I sure hope my flytraps will look like yours some day. You have abviously perfected growing them. It's the deepest red plant I've ever seen as well. It may turn out to be a new cultivar. I'll have to see. It's only been out of tissue culture a few months so it will be interesting to see its growth patterns over the next year or so. Holy crap, the King of Flytrap Care is back  you, sir, have pretty much mastered caring for these. HOW you even managed to get all of those awesome cultivars, I have no idea! If you ever make that red/black one a cultivar, I'll be first in line to buy it  These were really something, thank you for sharing Matt! You're very welcome! And I'm working on getting set up to ship plants internationally as we frequently get requests for international shipements. The easiest way to do so is to ship them in sterile cultures. But then the customer would have to harden them off, which could result in the death of a lot of flytraps. I'll probably have to go the route of getting a CITES permit to ship internationally so that I can ship hardened off plants. It's going to take a while to get enough plants propagated (it's a slow process even with TC), but I'm working on it With Steve's help growing out the TC babies, I'm sure we'll get there eventually. Excellent flytrap cultivation and collection you have there Matt. And I'm very impressed with how much your website as well as your collection has grown since you have gotten started with all of this, which wasn't really all that long ago. I hope your business is going well for you in these challenging economic times. But if you ever want to pick up some extra Canadian business, I'm sure there are a few here that would like to snap up some of your very fine vft offerings. Take care, and thanks for sharing. dvg Thanks dvg. Yes, it hasn't been that long ago that I started growing flytraps (other than the ones I killed as a kid) and started the FlytrapCare website. As you say, both my collection and the FlytrapCare community have grown very quickly. They are both something that I love and I put a lot of time, effort and passion into so it's very rewarding for me to see them thrive! |

All of your traps are truly amazing. Mine don't look nearly that good, not even close.

Absolutely stunning Matt! As with everyone else, I really love the red/black clone as well. If you ever need someone up here in the North to act as a distributor from TC, let me know!

Thanks for all of the great feedback everyone. renesis - Thanks for the offer of being a distributor from TC. Between you and hb, I'm hopeful that I'll be able to help get some great looking clones up there to Canada. |
