Borderlib... I wasn't specific about the age of the photo of your entry... I guess I just assumed that it would be fairly current pictures...but it is not in the rules because I would have no way of knowing when the picture was taken. :D

I want to play too, so this is my most recent problem child from July. It just goes to show the "beastly" nature of Capensis 'red'.

I'm not entering but I thought I'd share an achievement with D. capensis that I haven't managed for quite some time. I swear it wasn't me, it was pests! Fortunately it happened to my oldest display pot and not new and expendable seedlings that I wouldn't miss. :roll:

P.S. props to anyone who can identify the photobomber in the corner
