    Please subscribe and share this video with someone who might find it interesting :)
    Additional video details:
    - This video is meant to be mostly entertaining. I don’t truly believe that she is learning but I think it is very interesting that she has been able to “learn” how to catch like this. I think it’s mostly just a coincidence.
    - I know that their traps are not mouths, but saying mouths is more fun.
    - Flytraps don’t have genders, but scarlatine sounds feminine to me so I call her a she to make it easier.
    - This video doesn’t necessarily mean she couldn’t catch food before she “learnt” to catch them, but over time she has just become better and better at catching food. She almost never misses now. I never had videos of her catching any other food from before these videos.
    - Dracula can’t actually hypnotize or control flies, I say that because it seems like he can, seeing as he is really good at catching flies.
    I think that's it, happy growing :)

      "Dracula can’t actually hypnotize" This is true, but Dracula could have stronger toxins in the nectar then normal flytraps, also the slowness could help too! :)

    You pose an interesting question; can a plant chemically change the structure of its nectar to attract certain insects. Since the plants do not have eyes, I don't know how they would identify one fly from another. I would tend to believe more that being a cultivar and having its genetics a bit altered that what is happening is that one of its deficiencies is that its traps take longer to react than the 20 sec mark. So, what I am saying is that the plant gets the impulse to trigger but because of its deficiencies it takes longer for that message to react the trap to trigger. Fast flies move so quickly that by the time the plant realized that there was a fly there the fly has already left the trap and the plant does not trigger. The fly must remain in the trap longer and trigger the hairs more often to send the signal to close. Again, just my thoughts on the matter.

      It's definitely interesting. I think your idea may be true for scarlatine. However what's interesting is that some species of plants can mimic animals or other plants even though they don't have eyes. Yet that comes from evolution which would take them millions of years to achieve that, and I am not so sure if that's what's happening here. It's likely what you suggest above, but I'm still confused how she went from never catching anything to now catching lots of bugs lol. Maybe she is healthier now?

      I see what you mean and I think this could definitely be a great example of a form of evolution or at least adaptation to its surroundings and its physical/ genetic attributes.

    @SuwinTzi 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    If i remember correctly, the trigger hairs are supposed to release a specific chemical or mineral that causes the trap to close. Maybe the chemical was lacking, or the hair itself wasn't releasing anything until recently?
    Could also be a mutation for the plant to save energy until it's big enough to trap insects?

    • @theflytrapgardenfilms
      @theflytrapgardenfilms  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      It could possibly be a deficiency in salt / calcium / magnesium for their action potentials you mentioned. However I don't think it would be a mutation...but I honestly am not certain. All of her traps have eaten now, so it's going to be interesting to see what her new developing traps do, as all the traps in this video are over a year old. none have died off over winter

    wow this is really cool!!! i hope she can join season 2 of the flytrap games lol, especially with such a pretty name
    while i do doubt she's actively changing the makeup of her nectar (that kinda thing is more genetic/hereditary), maybe you can see if shes actively avoiding closing on green flies? I know someone else in the somments asked how she would tell the difference in flies, and it could be told by their weight or how fast they move on the plant. Are the green flies smaller than the grey flies, or as they are faster, move faster inside of the flytraps mouth? Also you mentioned Dracular as havung a similar strategy right? maybe check if their cultivars are related!!!
    yay this video was great lol!!!

    • @theflytrapgardenfilms
      @theflytrapgardenfilms  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It would be interesting to test if she is choosing which flies to catch, the only issue would be to have a constant supply of grey flies as they are somewhat rare lol. I bought some curly wing flies (grey ones) from the pet shop to test and they never hatched, they are all just pupae. I think they sold me a bad batch or something. But i'll definitely keep my eye on her. All her traps have eaten now, so it's time for the next round of new traps to develop before I can film her. I wonder what she will do next. I also want to know her lineage but that's extremely difficult to figure out as people don't really record these things as they should. I could do a video trying to track down the creator of the cultivars, but I doubt many people would like to watch that sadly

      Hey I actually just found this on the ICPS website: "The parentage of Dionaea ' Scarlatine ' L.Blacher is Dionaea ' Dentate Traps ' B.Rice x Dionaea ' Royal Red ' AUPBR 464. (...) Trap margin with short irregular dentition of a dentate sawtooth type, having a yellow-green color displaying red sprinkles or spots (see Fig. 1). The petiole with the same background coloration as the trap likewise shows red sputtering."
