here's a side-by-side pic I made of my two sundews that are growing stalks right now. they are D. Aliciae and D. Tonkanensis. I was thinking of maybe trying to save some pollen from the D. Tonkanensis if it flowers first to pollinate the D. Aliciae with :D

I do not think you can mix the two drosera species, because of the high number of 60 for D. Tonkanensis and 40 or 80 for D. Aliciae. It equals 100 or even 140 mixed together. It mus be a maximum of 60.
See the ,,Chromosome numbers reported for Drosera species.,, and ,,2n,, in the link below.
