| Hey Everyone!
Well I've noticed in my Venus Fly Trap from being in the sun it's turning purple =O Everything is healthy all the traps work NO dead leafs or traps I was wondering if this is normal?
*Sorry about the picture being blurry*
******Here is my BIG question!******* I ordered the proper soil for my C.P. plants it will be here tomorrow I was wondering is it to late to put them in dormancy? I'm going to put them in the fridge but can I just put them in right away?

| Hard to say, the pics are too blurry. It is normal for VFT to get red not only the insides of the trap but some red outside the loab, the petiole, or developing new traps under bright light. Some breed of VFT can get dark red all over like the famous Red Dragon. So it's normal |

| It's not good for a VFT to be up rooted several times in a growing season or to be planted in MG. I've noticed a purple color in many that I have lost. Hopefully it will recover from the torture. |
