ROFL!!!

I like that... Hmmm... maybe we need to make a 12 step program for these plants.... carnivorous sluts anonymous ??? name needs work!

Oh and the touché to your sig... What do you do when you see an endangered plant eating an endangered animal

Whats your environment like? Can we see some updated pics? Very interesting thread .

To Update,

This one is growing in my computer room... It sits in water most of the week, usually dry by friday, and watered again on saturday (roughly half-a-gallon a week, in the trough). Temps 69 deg at night up to 78 during the day.

Under 6500k CFL @ I think 16W.

it has now shot up 5 flower stalks, and working on number 6 as we speak

You can find an updated image below.

You can count 5 stalks there now, I snipped one off a while back to try to harvest the seeds... it was a complete and total failure.

The rest of the pack is:

Front most pot, d. cap red babies that germinated from seed that Obv sent to me
Right Pot: D. cap white babies that germinated from seed that Obv sent to me.
Back Pot: D. ad from FTS, that poor thing has been through hell.

Ok, you sundew is mad, or a pollenation addict Well done getting so many flower stalks

I dont know how mine turned to be so naughty!

Your plant looks very healthy and it's completely fine.
If you don't want to see flowers any more just trim off the stalk when you first see it.

Plants only flower when they're happy your plant be very happy and healthy if it continuosly flowers.

The really funny thing about that cap, is that it was literally 1/2 dead when I rescued it from Home Depot.

At any rate, I am happy it is happy, healthy, and sexually hyperactive.

If anyone wants a stalk once it is finished, let me know... only cost ya shipping then you can have your own troop of hyperactive plants

What dies the tab say towrds the side of the plant??? Just wondering.............

The plant in the back is the only one with a stake, it has the FTS logo on it and the name of the plant Drosera Adalae (SIC I am sure)

Oh my. Whether it has a.. "problem" or not, the constant stream of flowers are very beautiful! Thank you for sharing this.

No, I meant your nymphomanic d. capensis. Like I can see there's words but it's really blurry.
