FlytrapCare Carnivorous Plant Forums

I'd like to thank Aquis31 for his latest donation.
He has donated four different species in bulk, and I think I can make a few packs out of each one. The newest additions are U. subulata, D. burmannii "Perlata", D. capensis "Red", and D. ... one that's new, so it's not going to drop until February 1st. I love being a stinker!
On a side note; I seem to recall seeing a pic of Aquis31's red Cape and, although not quite as insanely red as "Redrum", it is probably in the top four of intensely red Capes that I've seen. Maybe top three, but it's a pretty specimen y'all!
Aquis31, obrigado pela sua generosidade.

STOP!!

In what ways does d. burmannii “Perlata” differ from d. burmannii typical? I read from past posts that it is a cross between “Hong Kong” and “Red”.

I am happy to contribute these seeds, I hope you are successful in cultivating them.

The main difference is color, but it has many shades. I've seen pics from those who got some seeds last year, and they range from a nice pink blush on what looks close to a Hong Kong", to a dusty, apple red. It just depends on what color genes get expressed.
Perlata, mischievous in Portuguese, lives up to its name, it's s always a fun surprise.

The pictures of burmannii "perlata" here look very nice. Hopefully there'll be some left by February 13th.

*Ahem*. It's definitely February 1st in Tennessee.

Patience young Grasshopper (and older Grasshopper), I did say February 1st, but we never agreed on when. I still have 13 hours and 55 minutes of "February 1st".

Was wondering if you had location data for the aff natalensis? Thanks

The Aff. natalensis were donated by Herbz187. He didn't list any location with the donation, but did say he got the seeds from Lowrie a while ago. You could probably drop him a PM to see.
Until then, here is a pic stolen off of Herbz187 Insta page.
