The weather is finally warm enough to plant some tropical Drosera seeds.

I planted a couple of sticky leaf non-Droseras also.

Proboscidea parviflora, AKA Devil's Claw, a proto-carnivore.
Byblis liniflora
Drosera serpens Jacky Jacky AU.
D. burmannii Keledang
D. cuneifolia Table Mountain
D. ramentacea Riviersonderend Mts
D. indica Red, Binh Chau Forest
D. hartmeyerorum 3 sources
D. cuneifolia CZP
D. slackii 2 sources
D. burmannii Humpty Doo
D. cucullata D finlaysoniana

That's enough for 1 day.
I'll plant up another 1020 flat tomorrow.

How do you plant your Proboscidea? Do you scarify before sowing? I harvested some seeds from a wild plant but haven’t gotten around to planting them yet.

I scratched a couple of them.
I soaked them in water 30 hours before I planted them.
I used Miracle Gro potting soil.
We'll see what happens.
