I got lucky this morning to walk in and find this. First time I've seen the flowers on this plant in my collection. Been growing them for years. One can see alot when they have a day off from work. Maybe I should call in sick more often.

That's a neat plant with some good photos.
I have some paleacea but they're in a lingering state of unhappiness.
I bought them as gemmae. They sprouted but they didn't flourish.
Maybe my photoperiod made them think it's time for dormancy. I don't know.
I have 4 types of pygmies but the only ones doing well are the scorpioides.
I think they're the Cape Sundew of the Pygmy world.

Anyways, to get back on track, Hats off to you. You have the right touch for that species.

Good growing,
Mike
