Unlike most other carnivorous plants, the venus flytrap I was given a year or so ago hasn't died. In fact, it's thriving so well that it's even flowered once.
The thing is... a venus flytrap has a maximum of seven leaves/jaws on it. If you have more than seven, you have more than one plant. They can do that, apparently: As well as the conventional flowering route, they can just split in two as well.
So, the questions are:
1. How many plants are currently in the pot on my windowsill?

2. Are there enough to gang up and overpower me if I can't find enough insects for them?
