     Earl,
      I have about 4 different clones of "All Red" VFTs. All plants seem to
     be growing normal as far as I can see. I did notice that the tc reds
     seem to be a little more aggressive in there growth and they seem to
     allow more division, but as for the other reds, they seem to grow
     similar to other common VFTs. There's a place in Australia(used to be
     called Dingleys) that sell different forms of all red VFTs. I don't
     know how well there plants grow compare to other red VFTs. Maybe
     someone else can share there experience with us regarding there VFTs.
     The only problem that I have encountered is trying to get them to set
     seed. All plants flower fine. They just don't set seeds. Some of my
     VFTs are in flower now, maybe I'll get lucky this year. Hope this
     helps.
                         Charles

Is the 'all red' variety of vft slower growing and harder to grow compared
to the 'common' vft? Also, will it get as big as the regular ones? Mine
seems to be growing much slower than the 'common' vft...
