If you have a wholesale nursery lisc. and can meet the minimum order requirements (144 I think), plus shipping,
the company which produces the most Venus Fly Traps in the USA is Agristarts,
I have found that they thrive best when planted in true composted peat moss; not the dollar a bag stuff from the discount garden center labeled peat, but rather the good stuff. You may need to do a lot of searching of grower suppliers to find a good brand. I used to use European Peat for growing most carnivorous plants but with the rising costs of petroleum/shipping it is no longer cost effective.
davesgarden.com has a lot of good solid useful information for gardeners, from gardeners, the $5.00/yrly membership tends to weed out a lot of the rif-raf one may encounter on gardenweb.com.
