Hi,
I have 3 D. Venustas, they have flowered several times for me however I always throw away the flower stalk after they dry.

My question is can anyone show me a photo of their own seeds or can I please have a detailed description of them?

I've read that D. Venusta seeds are transparent and fleshy.
I felt that I may have gotten them in many occasions and just wasted them.
Thanks

Here are Drosera seed images.

Here is a Drosera venusta seed image from a location in South Africa.
It can be considered typical for seed I.D. purposes, I believe.

Good growing,

Lol I was about to sow the remains of the flower then. I saw some elongated and yellowish stuff but I guess they need to be black like the rest of the seeds.
Thank you
