A seedgrown albino. It is so much fun to watch them develop. All of its siblings color up under bright lights but this one just continues to get brighter and brighter green.

One of my largest plants, a young adult no name typical VFT, larger than some B52's I have of the same age! Vigorous tall spring growth, one inch plus size traps with great color!

Purchased this "typical" from Etsy seller Carnigami October 2021, described as "Venus flytrap (Dionaea muscipula) Insect catcher [random Bare-root plant]"

I spoke with Matt about our typicals contest, and he said, “We have a lot of VERY nice typical flytraps right now, so that will make an excellent prize!” A picture will be forthcoming, but you know it will look amazing.
I'm excited and impatient right now. You're really holding me in suspense here. :)

Just arrived in Wilmington, NC! We stopped by a couple of CP hotspots, but Green Swamp had been my favorite. Here are some wild VFTs that are at Green Swamp and would be classified as "typical"

In all seriousness, I'm ok not getting any votes. I just want to participate.

Cheers!

Some amazing looking typical photos here posted by others! I picked the first photo because I liked the shadow of the teeth! The second picture is the big cup I keep them in. These were typicals from Lee’s

I've been watching this girl because she's starting to throw out some big traps, biggest is just over one inch, but seems to have thicker teeth than others as shown in another thread.
However, the latest trap is showing some strange characteristics. Long thin leaf with a two-faced trap.
