Hi everyone!

I joined a while ago appealing haplessly for information on South African sundews, back when I was still pretty clueless. A year on I have learnt quite a bit and am ready to rejoin the cultivation scene. I am based in the Cape of South Africa and often look for Carnivorous plants in the wild! So far I have seen the following Drosera: aliciae, admirabilis, xerophila, esterhuyseniae, cuneifolia, ramentacea, glabripes, slackii, capensis, hilaris, and trinervia. I hope to hit 20 species by the end of this year and introduce some new forms into cultivation (with a permit!).

I am slowly getting back into cultivation with some tokaiensis and spatulata babies outside, I have a much nicer fish tank germination set up for my next round of seeds that I am getting soon. Very excited to learn more about cultivation of these plants, and hopefully learn a bit more about Sundews outside of the Cape :D

See you around!
