I sowed seeds for both of these together due to lack of space... Can they stay together for a while? (All my seedlings are skipping dormancy.)

You will probably be okay for a while...The nice thing is the seedlings look completely different. So you will know what seeds germinated. Good luck with both...

D. x beleziana was recently changed to D. x eloisiana; apparently the original type specimen from the Pine Barrens was just a wacky D. rotundifolia.

Maybe so, but hollyhock did the cross herself. Thanks!

I picked this pot exactly for this reason. Thanks again!

I bought the plants and was told it was a hybrid of d..intermedia and d.rotundiflora. Just for clarification I did not cross pollinate the two. Regardless of the name it is a neat little sundew. I posted the photo in the thread where I offered the seeds.

Even if hollyhock did the cross herself it would still be D. x eloisiana; there's a huge difference between a hybrid name and a cultivar name.

Oh thanks, I didn't know about the new name.

Hey I just did a little research... I could not find any information on the subject anywhere...
