My 1st fly trap (King Henry) has really done well over the years. I have had it in a 12in pot for some time. When i re potted it this winter i even removed 10 of the largest divisions to sale. Here is some photos starting from late winter last year till today 6/9/23.

The damage is from a bad hail storm.

Wow, looks amazing. I just got a King Henry as my first flytrap back in April. How long have you been growing yours? A giant pot traps like yours is my goal.

Impressive!

Blessed are the "cracked" ... for it is they who let in the light.

I have a King Henry that I bought at Christmas time. I hope it does as well as yours has. Now that I think of it, I believe I gifted one for Secret Santa this past year also.

Thank you:
